Latvian National Opera - „Der Sandmann" Christian Spuck

The choreographer Christian Spuck is best known in Latvia for his comical „Grand Pas de Deux, the first part of the parody ballet Les Gems. His latest work, Der Sandmann, which is also this season's fi rst new production, was written for one of the leading ballet troupes in the world, the Stuttgart Ballet. Now it will be recreated with our company. The members of the creative team behind the production have been working together for many years. The entire LNO ballet troupe participates in the performances, and this new ballet once again gives our dancers the chance to prove their technical and artistic mastery.
