    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Nina Ananiashvili will give her final performance
    with American Ballet Theater as part of its spring 2009 program at the
    Metropolitan Opera House. She will play the role of Odette-Odile in
    "Swan Lake", a ballet by Tchaykovsky (choreographed by Kewin McQuain).

    For 17 years, the ballet dancer acted with ABT troupe. But she is not
    going to quit Georgian State Ballet troupe which she has been heading
    since 2004. Ananiashvili will also receive invitations from abroad.

    Nina Ananiashvili was born in Tblisi, Georgia, in 1964. In 1985, she
    won Gold Medal at the Moscow International Ballet Competition. In 1993,
    she started playing in American Ballet Theatre. By the initiation
    of Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili, Ananiashvili returned to
    Georgia where she has been heading the Ballet Troupe of Tbilisi Opera
    and Ballet Theatre after Zakharia Paliashvili since 2004.
