Open Call for dance makers – NextSteps 2025
Over the past ten years, the Junior Company of Dutch National Ballet and ISH Dance Collective have shown in several successful collaborative projects how ballet and hip-hop complement and enhance each other. With the programme NextSteps, we now aim to give a new generation of creators the opportunity to explore the synergy between these two dance forms.
Are you a new dancemaker with an affinity for ballet and/or hip-hop, and do you have an idea for a piece in which you further investigate the interaction between ballet and hip-hop? Then respond to this Open Call and submit your concept plan for a short choreography (10-15 minutes) for two or three dancers. You can submit your concept plan until 23 November 2024.
This Open Call is for new makers from all dance forms, with an affinity for ballet and/or hip-hop. By “new makers”, we mean those who are at an early stage in their career as a choreographer and have created a maximum of five choreographies in total.
