Nederlands Dans Theater (NDT)

Nederlands Dans Theater (NDT) is rated 3 out of 5 in the category fine art. Read and write reviews about Nederlands Dans Theater (NDT). Nederlands Dans Theater (NDT) is one of the most productive dance companies in the Netherlands, if not in the world. Every season, NDT shows an unprecedented number of new ballets. Artistic director Paul Lightfoot has deliberately chosen only a few revivals: "It's about artistic creation, not just choreography."​ The company has always been ambitious and idiosyncratic. Since its founding in 1959 by Benjamin Harkarvy, Aart Verstegen and Carel Birnie in cooperation with eighteen dancers from Het Nationaal Ballet (The National Ballet), NDT has tried to pave its own way in the modern dance field. Glen Tetley and Hans van Manen prominently imprinted NDT with an avant-garde aesthetic and their nonconformist, progressive productions put the company on the national and international map.
