Holland Opera is Looking for a Female Dancer to Dance The Main Character in the ‘Little Match Girl’

Holland Opera is a modern opera company that works both for a young and an adult audience. We have a great interest in movement/dance next to and together with music and have worked with dancers from different backgrounds several times.

Former work of Holland Opera:
Don Giovanni (2016): https://youtu.be/kwo3NwGLiNk
Little Mermaid (2017): https://youtu.be/JY6m6XoN1Bc
Little Mermaid_2 (2017): https://youtu.be/S9q4H0M4FQ4

Dancer and choreographer Jenia Kasatkina will work on the choreography together with the dancer.
The expression of the little match girl will be mostly in dancing and sometimes in words. Dutch language is not
necessary; the native language of the dancer will probably be used.
