Prima ballerina Nina Ananiashvili captivated Spoleto Festival USA audiences with her elegance and luminous technique when she appeared with Moscow Ballet Theatre in 2004. Featuring many of the same stellar dancers from MBT, this exceptional ensemble – called "Tbilisi’s crown jewel" – makes its official US debut with a sparkling production of the beloved ballet Swan Lake. Tchaikovsky’s haunting score is performed by the Charleston Symphony Orchestra.
