About Pink Panther Party XXL 2025
With its vibrant new production Pink Panther Party XXL, Introdans takes you back to the tolerant disco culture of the 1970s. For more than 50 years, Introdans has been dedicated to introducing as many people as possible to the world of dance. With Pink Panther Party, we bring a dance celebration for everyone, where different dance styles and dancers from diverse backgrounds come together on the dance floor.
The colorful cast features more than 20 dancers, including classically trained Introdans dancers, performers from other dance worlds, and both young and older talents. The choreography is by Adriaan Luteijn and Chantal de Vries, who drew inspiration from the 1970s, the rise of disco, and the legendary building that now houses Introdans—formerly the iconic nightclub De Pink Panther.
In March 2025, choreographer Adriaan Luteijn received the Cultuurfonds Gelderland Cultural Award for his many years of inclusive work. “In his productions, Adriaan brings together worlds and people. Seeming opposites are bridged, and physicality is given a new dimension. Dance tells the story of connection,” said the jury.
