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 a global dance company creating performance opportunities and experiences to help dancers further their careers and realize their dreams. By forming partnerships between selected artists from around the globe, creating and seeking national and international venues to perform our works, TNSP aims to push artists to their next level and to challenge and encourage creative artistic growth through dance, choreography, performance, education and exchange programs.
Company dancers are selected for their commitment, passion, talent and genuine 
interest in collaborating with the Artistic Directors.
The Next Stage Project is known for it’s organic movement style and exposing the space beyond one's kin-sphere in a satisfying combination of full body movement and small obscure interactions, portrayed by talented, strong and expressive dancers. Creating and working fast and furious, the work thrives on passion for dance - always in the moment and letting inspiration lead the way.

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!
