Multitasking at NDT
Spending the day rehearsing, eating pizza’s and petting the doggie, as one does. Tomorrow premiere. This week dancers from NDT, next week soloists from Paris Opera Ballet. Not a bad line-up!
Once upon a time, there was a small delegation of the NDT family visiting a mountainous country...
