Company NOI

Company NOI is an Antwerp-based dance company founded by Valentina Nigro in 2012. ‘Noi’, meaning ‘we’ in Italian, refers both to the choreographer’s Italian roots, and to the intense cooperation between the dancers, musicians, artists… and the choreographer.

With the ambition to reach a broader audience – not only in Antwerp, but also in the rest of Belgium and in Europe – Valentina established the non-profit association Company NOI in the summer of 2019.

The company consists of a group of young dancers with different ethnical identities, a valuable and crucial element for Valentina’s creations. Apart from the artistic wealth such a diverse group brings to the table, Company NOI is also an accurate representation of the intercultural society.

Valentina believes it is important to build lasting ties with the artists she is working with. With Company NOI, she aims to create a place of growth and durability. The company wants to inspire people with its creations, but also to bring up social issues for discussion.
