Following his success with the sensational Swan Lake performed by the Norwegian National Ballet, the prodigious choreographer Alexander Ekman created his A Midsummer Night’s Dream. A powerful contemporary piece that explores the energy and mysteries conjured by the summer solstice in Scandinavian tradition. A far cry from Shakespeare, Ekman shows us a phantasmagorical invention based on Northern mythology and traditions.
