Three young ballets and three must-see pieces! A creation by Alan Lucien Øyen, performed with finesse by the Norwegian National Ballet 2; Inked, a captivating piece by Arno Schuitemaker, interpreted by the dancers of the Coline training program; and Minus 16, an explosive work by Ohad Naharin, danced by IT Dansa.
