Next Steps 2024
NextSteps: where ballet and hip-hop come together. March 29 at Studio Boekman!
Four young choreographers, one question: what is created when ballet and hip-hop enter into dialogue? No six-step vs. pas de chat. NextSteps goes beyond stereotypes and brings together dancers and disciplines of the highest level. This happens right before your eyes—an experience you shouldn’t miss.
Next Steps features four dynamic pieces in which the Junior Company’s classically trained dancers and the energetic performers of ISH Dance Collective create a bold combination of hip hop and ballet. Previously, they did so in successful performances such as Dorian and Grimm, directed by Ernst Meisner and Marco Gerris. The floor is theirs; what will emerge when they are granted creative freedom?
Two dancers from each company will be featured as choreographers, collaborating with (dancers from) both disciplines. The end result consists of four short pieces. Submitted with the same brief, but each with a unique outcome, which these amazing young creators are delighted to share with you. And the next step? You can take that after the final performance at 21:00 at the afterparty. With none other than principal dancer (and the leading role from Dorian) Giorgi Potskhishvili as DJ!
