Premiere for the 50th anniversary of the N. Sats Theater. The ballet by Leonid Lubovsky was staged by choreographer Georgy Kovtun. The famous Kazan composer Leonid Lubovsky wrote the ballet based on Andersen's fairy tale specifically for the N. Sats Theater. The tale of the "Danish magician" about the resilience of spirit, faith in dreams, and the power of beauty has been embodied in music and dance. The choreographer from St. Petersburg, Georgy Kovtun, is one of the most interesting in Russia. His productions are always on the edge of human capabilities, they are risky, infused with complex, sometimes circus-like acrobatics, and captivate the imagination. Kovtun is characterized by restlessness, searching, and youthful spirit - he seems to always be 18 years old. The creator of the music for the ballet, Leonid Lubovsky, is the author of several operas (including the children's opera "Neznaika in the Sunny City"), major orchestral works, and numerous vocal and instrumental pieces.
