Shoot the Moon
(ballet)
Shoot the Moon won the VSCD dance prize, ‘the
Swan for best dance production 2005-2006’. “Lightfoot Leon demonstrate how
powerfully and subtly a good choreography and good dance can communicate”. That
is what the VSCD dance jury wrote when they gave the award to Paul Lightfoot and
Sol Leon for this choreography. In Shoot the Moon you catch glimpses of the love
life of three different couples. Revolving walls with striking black-and-white
wallpaper create three separate rooms, each containing its own love story. The
door to the other room always seems to be open and through the window a new
world beckons.
World premiere 27 april 2006, Lucent Danstheater, Den
Haag. Choreographer Sol Leon en Paul Lightfoot
Solo Echo (ballet)
Tell yourself, in that final flowing of cold through your limbs, that you
love what you are. Solo Echo (2012) by the Canadian Crystal
Pite softly lures you into a wintery melancholy, inspired by the poem Lines
for Winter by Mark Strand. Against a backdrop of steady whirling
snowflakes, a dynamic collective erupts around the focal point of the
individual.
World premiere 7 may 2009, Lucent Danstheater,
Den Haag. Choreographer Sol Leon en Paul Lightfoot Music: Ludwig van
Beethoven
Stop-Motion (ballet)
Stop Motion is the latest work of house choreographers Sol Leуn and
Paul Lightfoot. The ballet premiered in Programme III of NDT 1 on 29 January
2013. Set to a melancholic composition of Max Richer, seven dansers represent a
process of farewell and transformation. On stage a huge screen shows beautiful
slow video images, also featuring their daughter. Stop-Motion was
received with critical acclaim.
World premiere 29 january
2014 Choreographer Sol Leon en Paul Lightfoot
