Soir Historique is a telling demonstration on how the Nederlands Dans Theater has used a room as a dance theme during its 60-year oeuvre. The set for 1970 choreography Situation, created by Hans van Manen (NDT’s first Grand Maître of Choreography) is minimalist to say the least; creating a captivating piece of dance using just a wall, a door and a clock. The work will be joined by Gabriela Carrizo’s The Missing Door (2013), a surrealistic piece of dance theatre, and a world premiere by Edward Clug, whose creative voice symbolises NDT’s new generation of choreographic forces.
