NRW Junior Ballet

01.05.2025

Since its founding in 2014, the NRW Junior Ballet, which includes 12 young talents, has been structurally closely linked to the Dortmund Ballet Company. It is an integral part of cultural education and cooperates with numerous training institutions in North Rhine-Westphalia. Founded as a two-year training program for young dancers on their way to professional careers, this project, unique in its structure worldwide, has since become Dortmund's "Ambassador of Dance" through its extensive guest performances. The NRW Junior Ballet offers young dance talents the opportunity to gain professional and stage experience in a professional setting for two years, to participate in productions, and to develop and realize independent dance projects in collaboration with choreographers such as Demis Volpi, Raimondo Rebeck, Craig Davidson, Xenia Wiest, Juanjo Arques, Itzik Galili, and Nadav Zelner, thus perfecting their art.

Choreographies:

- "Lady Dance" from "A Midsummer Night's Dream" (choreography by Alexander Ekman)

- In the Forest (choreography by Xin Peng Wang)

- Blushing (choreography by Marco Goecke)
