HomeEin Sommernachtstraum Mendelssohn - Bartholdy/Reich/Glass
Heinz Spoerli has interpreted one of the most famous plays in world literature, William Shakespeare’s "Midsummer Night’s Dream", as a neoclassical narrative ballet. Stage craftsmen and ballet dancers find themselves in a shared dream of the theatre. A fantastical, fairy-tale evening on the trials and tribulations of love, mistaken identities, transformations and entanglements, on the "anarchy of stupidity" and "the desire to play in the world of the fairies" (Heinz Spoerli). "…a great, acclaimed evening of neoclassical ballet…"; Heinz Spoerli succeeds in "charging abstract dance with the specific emotional world of narrative ballet – love, dissolving in sound, colour and pure movement" (Basler Zeitung).
