THE STATE BALLET OF GEORGIA

THE STATE BALLET OF GEORGIA

A World Class Ballet Company.

"Ananiashvili and her company are practicing diplomacy through dance — a great and hopeful gift. A round of bravos for the organizers who made this tour possible, and may these remarkable dancers, and their exceptionally generous director, return soon.”
— Sarah Kaufman, The Washington Post

"Ms. Ananiashvili took in the adoration like air, her pride more than personal as she carried the Georgian flag. She bears the standard of her small nation well.”
— Brian Seibert, The New York Times

”Five years ago, the mantle was passed to Nina Ananiashvili who has inspired not just the company, but also the whole country with her dedication, devotion, and incredible success in putting the Georgian State Ballet on the international ballet map.”
— Margaret Willis, Ballet.co.uk
