United Ukrainian Ballet Company

The United Ukrainian Ballet Company consists of 60 refugee dancers who have sought refuge in The Hague since the outbreak of war. In the past year, the company has danced, with great success, on all major dance stages throughout the world. Together with artistic director Igone de Jongh and Rinus Sprong, the company has put together an impressive ballet gala with works that show the beauty, strength and resistance of the Ukrainian dancers.

Among other choreographies, you will see the fairytale Les Sylphides (composed by Frédéric Chopin) and the spectacular Hopak, in which the Ukrainian dancers’ jumping power rates world class. And perhaps most importantly, you will see wonderful international soloists: all dancers who are part of this special company.
