In this stateof-the-art dance house, the pupils and students work all year round on perfecting their technique. This culminates in the highlight of the academic year: the sparkling and always enchanting end-of-year performances on the big stage at Dutch National Opera & Ballet. During Dancers of Tomorrow, you get to know the youngest generation of talented dancers, ranging from the first-years aged ten and eleven to the graduates who are on the point of starting their professional career. This season, too, they will all be displaying their talents to the very best in an extremely diverse programme, with live accompaniment from the Dutch Ballet Orchestra. Besides excerpts from the classical repertoire, there will also be works by contemporary master choreographers like, in recent years, Crystal Pite, David Dawson, William Forsythe, Hans van Manen and Wayne McGregor. In addition, particularly since Ernst Meisner was appointed artistic director of the academy, many young dance makers have already created new, exciting premieres for the pupils and students taking part in Dancers of Tomorrow, including Juanjo Arqués, Wubkje Kuindersma, Ken Ossola, Didy Veldman and Remi Wörtmeyer. Leading international academy The Dutch National Ballet Academy is one of the leading international academies for classical ballet and the only Dutch dance academy directly affiliated with Dutch National Ballet. Pupils and students take part in Dutch National Ballet’s fulllength productions, while dancers and ex-dancers from the company teach at the academy, and the most outstandingly talented youngsters have a chance of joining the Dutch National Ballet’s Junior Company in their final year of training. All of this makes the Dutch National Ballet Academy not only the hotspot for talented Dutch dancers, but also an extremely sought-after follow-up course for scholarship winners from major international ballet competitions.
