Composer Kārlis Lācis made Ziedonis’s men speak openly, while maintaining the feeling that it could all be a bluff. The set designer and director of the concert performance is Reinis Suhanovs, with whom the content was created by actors – Artūrs Skrastiņš, Kaspars Znotiņš and Andris Keišs. The choreography was created by Elīna Gediņa. The concert will be attended by special surprise guests.
“For all the musicians, singers, actors, the idea immediately captivated me and created a project of love that unites us all in a common love for our work and, most importantly, mutual joy of being together and working together. It would not be possible without this main factor.” “It’s a way we move together and enjoy the process,” explains Kārlis Lācis.
Ar Western banks and the charitable foundation it founded Future Support Fund support, in cooperation with the Latvian Medical Association and the Latvian Red Cross, doctors and employees of the Emergency Medical Service were also invited to the concert performances, who worked tirelessly throughout the pandemic and still do so; as well as volunteers who helped work with Ukrainian refugees in Latvia.
