Nederlands Dans Theater II

le Nederlands Dans Theater, fondé en 1959, s'est constitué un répertoire innovant, fortement influencé par la modern dance américaine, sans pour autant se départir de ses bases classiques. Il est composé de trois compagnies différentes définie par l'âge des danseurs, tel le NDT II, composé de 16 danseurs de 17 à 22 ans et doués d'une énergie hors du commun, le tout sous la direction de deux jeunes chorégraphes, Paul Lightfoot et Sol León.
