mariaslozak:haruchonns:Current fascination: Pieni Merenneito//Finnish National BalletComposed by Tuomas Kantelinen, Choreographed by Kenneth GreveThe Little Mermaid (2016)“A tale of shattered dreams: This visually stunning staging of The Little Mermaid combines classical ballet with contemporary dance, and the underwater world is brought to life with cutting-edge 3D technology.Choreographer Kenneth Greve and composer Tuomas Kantelinen have created a fairy-tale world that touches on the biography of H.C. Andersen (1805–1875). Andersen attended ballet school himself and admired the sensitivity and grace of dancers but could never create a career as a dancer himself because of his deformed body.Andersen and the Little Mermaid both aspire to what they could not achieve: she wants to have legs; he wants to be able to dance.” The Finnish National BalletCast: The little mermaid - Tiina Myllymäki; The prince - Michal Krčmář; Foreign princess - Desislava Stoeva; H. C. Andersen - Ville Mäki; The Witch - Salla Eerola. -- source link
