Aimed directly at a young audience, Demis Volpi’s Krabat, based on the eponymous award-winning novel for young adults, is a classic coming of age story about a penniless orphan who defeats an evil and cruel magician with the help of a friend and the love of a young girl. Fantastical sets and costumes and evocative music by Pēteris Vasks, Philip Glass and Krzysztof Penderecki combine with Volpi’s original choreography for an unforgettable theatrical dance experience.
