The Next Stage Project - A Global Dance Company

Founded in 2002 by Artistic Directors Marijke Eliasberg and Jana Hicks, The Next Stage Project (TNSP) is known for an organic movement style, full body movement and small obscure interactions, portrayed by talented and expressive dancers. 
By forming partnerships between selected artists from around the globe and seeking creative venues to perform our works, TNSP aims to give dancers, choreographers and artists an opportunity to connect and share their art and passion. 

Company dancers are selected for their commitment, passion, talent and genuine 
interest in collaborating with the Artistic Directors.

AHA - ART, HUMANITY & AWARENESS

Picture
Since the inception of TNSP in 2002, we have been strong supporters of humanitarian causes and have facilitated/and or shared in performance showcases which provide relief efforts. 

​These AHA projects are not only to raise money, but more importantly to raise human awareness through art and passion, and hopefully to inspire others to do the same!
