Contemporary dance for daredevils and connoisseurs
Boundless imagination, storytelling in motion and hypnotic techno. NDT is so much more than dance!
NDT has been committed to the innovation and development of dance for 65 years. What began as a rebel group has become a progressive and internationally renowned production house. NDT presents emerging talent, classics and big names.
Bombastic classical music, soundscapes, Ravels bombastic Bolero or alternative rock by Placebo? The choreographer decides what you will hear during the performance. Sometimes the dancers make their own beat, sometimes there are recordings that are played and sometimes… there is live music.
A must-see if you like music? Falling into Shadow is partly accompanied by The Dutch Ballet Orchestra in The Hague.
From dream worlds to dystopian landscapes. With sets, handmade costumes, optical illusions and projections, NDT sets up new worlds you can get lost in.

The dancers tell the choreographer’s story with their bodies. The dance movements form a pulsating landscape in Marcos Morau’s work. In addition, Nadav Zelner presents a new work: expect a fantasy world with pop culture influences.
