reviews
¨ ...Wubkje Kuindersma made a number of pieces in the Netherlands and Germany and in 2016 she won the BNG Bank Dance Award for young choreography talent. Mångata is a composition of the Swedish words for 'moon' and 'way' and refers to the reflection of the moon over the water. From two sides the road is entered by a man and a woman who seek closeness in a virtuoso game of clean lines for a short time.¨ (translated from dutch)
Theaterkrant
Theaterkrant
¨...Of the thirteen young ballet dancers, one has the Dutch nationality, Timothy van Poucke, from a well-known musical genre. His guts and musicality stand out. At least such an eye-catcher is the Georgian Salome Leverashvili who combines an exact technique with a radiant performance. She sparkles, both during the impressive series of fouettés in the classic pas de trois from Le Corsaire and in the new duet with Van Poucke, created by choreographic talent Wubkje Kuindersma. She delicately debuts in the classical world, enlivening warm-blooded romance with playful accents such as in air-cycling legs.¨ (translated from dutch)
