Nederlands Dans Theater (NDT) is one of the world’s preeminent dance companies, and its long-awaited return to Ottawa is a highlight of the NAC Dance season. The company’s dancers are renowned for their technical brilliance and versatility who exquisitely embody a wide range of styles. By fostering a unique environment of creation, NDT attracts a guest choreographer list that reads like a who’s who of the international dance scene. This phenomenal triple bill performed by NDT 1 includes The Statement by NDT’s associate choreographer Crystal Pite, VLADIMIR by the inimitable Hofesh Shechter and Singulière Odyssée, by NDT’s award-winning house choreographers Sol León and Paul Lightfoot.

This presentation is part of the NAC’s week-long focus on the arts and artists of The Netherlands, in recognition of the 75^th anniversary of VE Day and the deep and abiding friendship between Canada and the Netherlands.
