In ' black and blue ' takes Introdans Ensemble for Youth the audience in the imaginative world of Alwin Nikolaïs. The famous American artist made not only works, but also designed light, sound, decor and costumes.
Thanks to Intro dance, that the exclusive right acquired to work some of his magic to dance in Netherlands, we are introduced to his masterpiece ' Crucible '. Also ' Tensile Involvement ' takes a special place amongst the many other works of Nikolaïs success. In this almost sixty years old choreography excel the dancers in a tangle of elastics.
