Nacho Duato is the director of the Mikhailovsky Theater in Saint Petersburg. He left Spain's National Dance Company 14 years ago after being told his success eclipsed the Company.

Duato: "I hardly get called for interviews anymore because I let out four awkward animal things" "I have done things about terrorism when it was the order of the day, because my sister died because of heroin" "The Nutcracker is very good for the children, but if we stay there, we stay what we are"
