10 dancers.
10 pieces of music.
10 interpretations.

The Greatest Dance Hits is a performance of ten dances set to ten musical pieces, directed and based on the original idea by dance and performance artist Maija Mustonen. In it, Leena Gustavson, Joona Halonen, Jyrki Karttunen, Ninu Lindfors, Heli Meklin, Maija Nurmio, Anne Pajunen / Saara Töyrylä, Laura Pietiläinen, Anni Rissanen and Taneli Törmä interpret ten great dance hits selected by themselves for themselves.

The Greatest Dance Hits is a continuation of Mustonen's 2012 direction The Greatest Love Songs, where performers danced to love songs they had chosen.
