Anne Posted May 6, 2018 Author Share Posted May 6, 2018 Eva Kistrup has some more news on this appointment in on her blog: "Breaking News! Andreas Kaas made principal dancer". And earlier this spring Kistrup had an interesting interview with Andreas Kaas, just after he returned from a guest stay with the Marinsky ballet : Interview "In all, Andreas Kaas is having a fabulous season. He is practically dancing all the male leads in the RDB season. Following a Kylian programme, he has the leading male role in “Raymonda” + the role of Beranger, “The Nutcracker”, ”Swan Lake” and “Tchaikovsky Pas de Deux”. He is currently learning the leading male role for Liam Scarlett’s creation for RDB, a ballet based on Pushkin’s “Queen of Spades”. Link to comment
