Teet Kask – choreographer

Teet Kask directing “A Wingless Flight Into The Darkness“, rehearsals (2013, Saaremaa Ooperipäevad), performed by State Ballet of Georgia.

Teet Kask (1968) has worked with the The Estonian National Ballet, The Royal Swedish Ballet and The Norwegian National Ballet. Since 1996, Kask is active as a choreographer. In 1999, the Critics Survey of Ballet International/Tanz Aktuell International awarded him the title of “outstanding dancer” for his creative work in the season of 1998/1999. In 1999, the choreographical work of Kask, “Ursula X”, reached the finals of Concours International de Choregraphie Classic in Paris.

Teet Kask has a Master of Arts Choreography from the City University London/Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance. In his choreographic works Kask uses both the aesthetics of classical dance as well as modern expression and likes to flirt with a certain amount of experimentation. He has become a unique artist/choreographer/tutor synthesizing classical and contemporary dance.
