Brad Pitt was magnificent in the film, but he has nothing on this explosive live music and dance version of Troy. This historical spectacle by the successful dance company Fire of Anatolia has its Dutch premiere during Turkey Now. Choreographer Mustafa Erdoğan modelled his show on the stories of the famous poet Homer about the Trojan Horse. Homer is the most famous ancient Greek poet and was born in Izmir (now in Turkey), which was called Smyrna at the time. Through thirteen scenes this show takes you on a dazzling tour of history. In the past few years Fire of Anatolia has toured extensively with its first show, to sold-out venues and great acclaim. With Troy the company makes a stunning impression, bringing no less than 64 dancers to the stage. Every minute bursts with tremendous energy. The beautiful costumes dazzle the eye. Fire of Anatolia has earned itself a place among the great names of the dance world. The company performs all over the world at venues that are consistently sold out, such as Madison Square Garden in New York, as well as at the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics. The last few years they attracted over twenty million spectators in no less than 85 countries. This is the only performance in the Netherlands, with just three shows in Amsterdam!
