The Beginning and the End

In the past week all the dancers of NDT came back to work at the company and to scramble to get things together for our performance of Switch at the end of next week!
After a much needed holiday and visits with family the process of getting back into shape is never easy ... let alone those extra hours of rehearsal at the end of the day - ouch!
Very quickly we all had to remind ourselves of the pieces for the annual in studio run through. This is something we do since program printing needs to get started as soon as possible and
the pieces need to be seen to decide the order of the show.  This is truly one of the highlights of Switch- when everyone's quiet and dispersed but steady work that has been blossoming all fall is revealed and we get to see the diversity, ideas, and talent of our colleagues.  The evening was full of surprises, admiration, beauty and a little bit of nerves.  It is also the first time that we are all gathered together along with the technicians; so the sense of a collective is finally established along with the first actualization and realization of the work that has been done by the Switch Team.
In the next days people will be putting final touches on their work, the program will need to be organized and printed and the box office will be checked a lot; among other things...
We are hoping for the best for a great performance and for support for our cause - Jeugd Cultuur Fonds!
Get your tickets while there are still a few left......
