Nina Ananiashvili, "classical ballet's undeniable superstar" (The New York Post), is quite simply one of the greatest dancers of our time. A star of the Bolshoi Ballet and American Ballet Theatre, she now directs her homelands national company, the State Ballet of Georgia, which showcases outstanding classical technique in a diverse, dynamic program of works.

The company performs "Falling Angels" by the incomparable Czech choreographer Jirí Kylián, and "Bizet Variations" by American Ballet Theatres Alexei Ratmansky, who was recently called one of the best dancemakers in ballet today by The New York Times. The program concludes with four pas de deux (dances for two) treasures by classical ballets Sir Frederick Ashton including "Voices of Spring" and "La Chatte".
