School of Thought
Nederlands Dans Theater
The Hague, Netherlands

Choreographer: Sol León & Paul Lightfoot
For this production, a dance theater was created on stage with an oval shaped wooden dancefloor, surrounded by old theater chairs that were first used during the 'Expo 58' in Brussels. The theme of this world fair was faith in freedom and progress.
“With our new production for 'Programme V', it promises to be a real adventure for Sol and I creatively. The world we live in is full of changes. We are inspired to explore the relativity
between the presence of the artist within the reality of life. We hope you will join us on the creative voyage into our world, where dance and its importance will be investigated.” - Paul Lightfoot
