Featuring new work by Rutkay Özpinar, Marta & Kim and Patricia van Deutekom
'DANSLOKAAL' is Conny Janssen Danst's annual talent development project, in which talented makers are invited to develop new work with the dancers of the Rotterdam company. Artistic director Conny Janssen, one of the leading choreographers in the Netherlands, selects a special variety of talent each edition in collaboration with Dansateliers and Korzo. In DANSLOKAAL 11, these are Rutkay Özpinar (Korzo), the duo Marta & Kim (Dansateliers) and Patricia van Deutekom (Conny Janssen Danst). The young makers get the chance to work within the professional context of the company to develop their own signature. The result is a surprising performance with three new works, made for and with the dancers of Conny Janssen Danst.

DANSLOKAAL 11 will have its national premiere at festival de Nederlandse Dansdagen. The performance can then be seen in the intimate setting of Huis Conny Janssen Danst in Rotterdam and then goes on tour to theatres. Conny Janssen Danst's loyal audiences will thus have the chance to get to know the work of these young, up-and-coming choreographers, who will in turn be able to bring their productions to national attention.
