The State Ballet of Georgia 

About

Rarely do U.S. audiences have the opportunity to see The State Ballet of Georgia. They appeared at Northrop in 2008, and Minneapolis is the only city they will visit in 2020. Under the artistic leadership of Nina Ananiashvili, renowned as one of the greatest ballerinas of all time, the company continues to flourish and expand its repertoire. They will share two of George Balanchine’s greatest masterpieces: Concerto Barocco and Symphony in C. The rousing finale will be a work created especially for the company by Yuri Possokhov (choreographer of The Joffrey Ballet’s Anna Karenina), Sagalobeli, danced to Georgian folk melodies.
