A statement for female power
Nicolas Huchard is, to say the least, a central figure on the Parisian cultural scene. With many strings to his bow, his dancing versatility has opened doors for collaborations with luxury brand LVMH and Paul Gaultier as well as with French megastars. In addition, he has had the privilege of dancing and choreographing for Madonna’s Madame X tour.
Five fantastic divas
Now it’s time for his own company to take its place. In The Barefoot Diva, five black female divas claim the stage. With the help of waacking, krump, hip-hop, house and afro, they celebrate the female body, its individuality and diversity. Together, they deliver the movement and energy that pulsates through history and drives change.
The barefoot diva celebrates the extraordinary power in every woman.

“Celebrating women’s individuality and plurality, the Barefoot Diva dances at the crossroads of Africa and Europe, remaking the rules and asserting power, rigor and excellence”

We’re treating you to coffee and pastries!
Norrlandsoperan is currently procuring a new restaurateur who will take care of the intermission service at our concerts and performances. We are really looking forward to being able to present who will be our new restaurateur at Norrlandsoperan. While waiting for this to be completed, we will start the year by offering coffee (coffee/tea and cake) during the months of January and February, when you visit Norrlandsoperan’s performances.
A warm welcome!
