In May 2024 the group is celebrating 10 years of existence and to celebrate the occasion they will give a sneak preview of 15 minutes from the performance PART in the Atrium of the City Hall on Tuesday May 7 at 5PM and 6PM. The phenomenal dancers of OFFprojects will be joined by Ben-Tal himself playing live on electric guitar.
The full performance of PART together with classical modern string quartet Ragazze Quartet can be seen at Korzo Theater on Saturday 11 May at 8:15PM. This evening you can also see several installations and video works of the collective.
Amos Ben-Tal
Israeli-Dutch choreographer Amos Ben-Tal creates multidisciplinary performances, events and installations and is well-known for his ‘out of the box’ approach to dance.
Ben-Tal starts dancing at the age of thirteen in various schools in Israel and completes his training in 1997 at The National Ballet School in Toronto, Canada. He then moves to the Netherlands to dance at Nederlands Dans Theater for nine years. It is at NDT where he develops his passion for choreography, debuting in 2005 with the work Track, which receives rave reviews.
From 2006 onward Ben-Tal dedicates himself to creating his own work, for Korzo Productions among other things: Ziggurat (2007), We Are Not Humanity (2008), The New Work (2011) and Kill The Victor (2012). In 2012 Amos co-founds ‘OFFprojects’, a collective of four dancers who create multi-disciplinary performances, events and installations. Their first full evening production OFFline (2014) receives critical praise and tours the Netherlands as well as France, England, Czech Republic and Germany.
