Mata Hari's secret to be revealed...

100 years ago, Margaretha Geertruida Zelle, better known under her stage name Mata Hari, the famous exotic dancer and suspected double agent was executed in Paris. However, the nature and extend of her espionage activities remain uncertain and to this day her guilt is still widely debated. 

Now, on the occasion of her 100th death day, the French archives will finally be opened and might shed some light into this mystery...

In 2016, the story of the famous femme fatale was brought to life by Ted Brandsen and the Dutch National Ballet and features Anna Tsygankova in the lead role. Music by Tarik O'Regan, which was cleverly incorporated by the Dutch Ballet Orchestra under the baton of Matthew Rowe, make this ballet a must-see for fans.
