Georgian State Dance Company in the USA now!

[Ivy]

Не пропустите! Это незабываемое зрелище!

Национальный Балет Грузии им.Сухишвили начинает свои гастроли по США. Говорят, что пять лет назад они тут выступали с большим успехом. Это лучшая грузинская труппа, которая выступала на самых знаменитых европейских сценах.

... The art of dance has a long history in Georgia, enjoying a revival during the Soviet era. This ensemble began as the Georgian State Dance Company, founded by on-stage (and off-stage) partners Iliko Sukhishvili and Nino Ramishvili. The techniques and beats the troupe use come from a strong tradition in the region involving high-spirited acrobatics. The ensemble has been a major influence on Georgia’s dance scene, with steps being passed down from the founders to new generations. The Sukhisvili company has also spread their methods to other troupes while building a reputation on the international scene.

The company has appeared at Albert Hall, the Metropolitan Opera and Italy’s La Scala—marking the first performance of a folklore group at that venue.
