Fifty extraordinary, richly costumed dancers, accompanied by live musicians, perform an exciting program, representing the most sensational pieces in the company’s repertoire.

SUKHISHILI has performed for fifty million people in eighty-eight countries on five continents.  It was a headline attraction with New York City Ballet for the George Balanchine Centennial. It has previously performed at the Metropolitan Opera, Avery Fisher Hall, Madison Square Garden Albert Hall, the Rome Coliseum and La Scala where it was enthusiastically welcomed with rousing ovation and a record-setting number of curtain calls.  

The company’s surging expression of emotion and tradition reflects the adventure of the Georgian Spirit and is an emotion-packed evening that brings to the world the story of Georgia, its great tragic history, artistry, humor, tradition, temperament and will.
