'Memories of the body' is a ballet by Hans van Manen, dedicated to Gérard Lemaître in celebration of the twentieth anniversary of NDT. In his living room, Lemaître reminisces about the ballets he danced in the past. This way, Van Manen honors several fellow choreographers that in one way or another, laid the groundwork for NDT.
