Under our roof: Nederlands Dans Theater
Nederlands Dans Theater (NDT) is one of the world's leading contemporary dance companies, dedicated to creation, research and talent development. As a creation house dedicated to diverse voices, ideas and approaches to dance, NDT continuously collaborates with emerging and renowned or established choreographers and artists from diverse backgrounds from all over the world. The company is led by artistic director Emily Molnar and managing director Marc Pil.
NDT consists of two dance companies, NDT 1 and NDT 2 (for very talented, beginning dancers) and is based in Amare, The Hague. The companies tour the Netherlands but also worldwide through Europe, America, Asia and Australia, connecting with large audiences and diverse arts communities around the world.
NDT is a collective house for creation, supporting new artistic voices and experiments and nurturing the past. With a repertoire of more than 600 works by associate choreographers Crystal Pite and Marco Goecke, Jiří Kylián, Johan Inger, Ohad Naharin, Gabriela Carrizo, Hofesh Shechter, and Sharon Eyal & Gai Behar, Nadav Zelner, Marcos Morau among others, and over 12 world premieres each season, NDT is the embodiment of contemporary dance.
Season 25/26
NDT is a house of creation, and this will be central to the upcoming season.
The company presents daring, stimulating contemporary dance of the highest caliber, featuring works by renowned choreographers from both the Netherlands and abroad.
NDT will revive iconic works by Jiří Kylián, Alexander Ekman, and Marcos Morau, as well as by associate choreographers Crystal Pite and Marco Goecke. The company will also explore the fascinating worlds of Ohad Naharin and Sharon Eyal.
Additionally, NDT will delve into the work of innovative creators such as Imre van Opstal & Marne van Opstal and Jermaine Spivey. Newcomers Jan Martens and Ethan Colangelo will add fresh perspectives to the repertoire.
Online performances
Through online performances, you can experience NDT dancers closer than ever. Digital Theatre presents a number of performances as video on demand or livestream, so you can also enjoy NDT's dance art at home.
Talent development & Education
With its multifaceted talent development and education activities, NDT offers creative and challenging opportunities for both professional and non-professional dancers of all ages and backgrounds to flourish on and off stage. At Nederlands Dans Theater, we believe that everyone is a dancer. Dance has the ability to connect and inspire people and we encourage that wholeheartedly!
Two companies
Nederlands Dans Theater consists of two companies. The first company, NDT 1, consists of 28 phenomenal dancers from all over the world, aged 23 to 40 years old. The dancers are world famous for their theatricality, stunning technique and unparalleled expression. Each season, the first company performs four Dutch programs in addition to numerous large tours.
In 1978 the company founded NDT 2 under the leadership of Jiří Kylián. This second company prepares sixteen recently graduated, often classically trained dancers, for the world top. Initially, NDT 2 was considered a talent development program, however NDT 2 has since developed into an independent company with its own repertoire and extensive national and international touring schedule. The collaboration with many (upcoming) choreographers gives dancers the opportunity to quickly assimilate to different dance languages, techniques and working methods.
From their home base in The Hague, both companies work continuously to make a significant contribution to the future of contemporary dance, both in the Netherlands and far beyond. Dance talent, choreographic innovation, experimentation and a high degree of productivity – the company creates an average of 10 new works per season – define NDT since its early beginnings.
“The performers of Nederlands Dans Theater fuse exacting execution and creative ambition to create grotesque, haunting, and sublime images.”
That was the opening line of Broadway World’s review in March 2020, a day after the first performance of NDT 1 in New York City Center. The quote typifies a company that is praised worldwide for dancers who are both as technically gifted as they are exceptionally virtuoso.
The company is led by artistic director Emily Molnar and managing director Willemijn Maas.
