ABOUT US
Vladyslav Detiuchenko and Veronika Rakitina are not only partners in life, but also an artistic duo united by their passion for contemporary dance and creative exploration. Since 2023, they have been working together: Vladyslav creates choreography, while Veronika supports him, and together they perform as a duo on stage. Their artistic approach is built on blending emotion, dramaturgy, and visual language, where every gesture and movement becomes part of a story, and dance serves as a means of communication and meaningful experience.
In 2025, the duo founded n’Era Dance Productions, an organization dedicated to supporting Ukrainian culture and contemporary dance, creating a platform for stage and film projects, and promoting the arts. Through their work, Vladyslav and Veronika strive to inspire audiences, unite artists, and create a space where contemporary dance becomes a language of emotion, memory, and hope.
After the start of the full-scale invasion, Vlad and Veronika were forced to leave Ukraine and move to the Netherlands, where they joined the United Ukrainian Ballet. Working with the company gave them the opportunity to continue developing their craft, perform on major stages, and create their own projects, including charitable initiatives in support of Ukraine. Among these, the most significant was Light in Darkness, organized in collaboration with Korzo. It was during this period that they fully established themselves as an artistic duo, collaborating with Korzo, Senf Production, Magnezy Dance Productions, and other European production companies. Together, they contributed to projects for Igone de Jongh, whose gala performances were held at the Royal Theatre Carré, and worked with renowned Dutch artists such as Casper Faassen, Rahi Rezvani, and Pieter Henket.
In 2024, the duo was nominated for the Piket Kunstprijzen for their contribution to the cultural life of The Hague. In 2025, Vlad and Veronika became the winners of Holland’s Got Talent, which expanded their international audience and opened new opportunities for the development of n’Era Dance Productions.
