THE POTSKHISHVILI NATIONAL BALLET “METEKHI“ PRESENTS Act I The Cross-road CHOREOGRAPHIC SHOW The cross-road is the corner-stone of Georgia where tribes of different faith passed on the way and left a significant trace in the development of our culture which later found a reflection in the enrichment of our own folklore patterns and expansion of creative horizons. Georgia is reflected in ‘The Cross-road’ as one of the connecting links (Silk Road). In ‘The Cross-road’ there are choreographic sketches consisting of old Georgian folklore patterns. Folklore patterns of both urban and mountain people come together here. The diversity of these patterns creates one common line. Performance duration: 50 min.
