Overview
GHDT is a contemporary dance company, but as the name implies, the company performs in a wide variety of styles that combine modern dance, ballet, pointe, ethnic dance forms and theatre to create a unique style of movement and sense of drama. GHDT has created a large repertoire of over 100 pieces, rich in contrasts, which appeals to a broad-based and eclectic audience. In addition to the repertoire pieces, the company presents full-length contemporary ballets such as The Gypsy Vampires of Drakov, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, SUPERHERO; the story of a man called Jesus and Alice and Her Bizarre Adventures in Wonderland, and Romeo and Juliet at the Disco.
The most unique aspect of GHDT is its commitment to creating dances dealing with relevant social, political, cultural, historical and spiritual issues. The company has used dance to speak to its audiences about human rights and dignity. The company also presents pieces that are purely entertainment and lighter pieces for children.
