I’m afraid to forget your smile

Choreography by Imre & Marne van Opstal

The Dutch siblings Imre & Marne van Opstal are the shooting stars of the European dance scene. For Hessian State Ballet they developed their new creation I`m afraid to forget your smile for six dancers with the inclusion of choirs and explored the moment of letting go as a transitional state in the surrender to loss. A flash so tangible and fleeting that time seems to stand still. After dance engagements at the renowned Nederlands Dans Theater (NDT) 1 & 2 and Batsheva Dance Company, the young duo van Opstal started a promising choreographic career at NDT back in 2016. Currently, they regularly create for the traditional Dutch house and beyond throughout Europe.
