A Flea And An Ant

A flea and an Ant A flea and an Ant – one of the most famous stories from Georgian folklore. This wonderful story has very deep roots, grandparents told a tale of flea and ant to their grandchildren for centuries and almost every Georgian knows it by heart. Everybody needs a friend – a human, animals and birds, even the tiny creatures want to have faithful friends by their side. This tale tells us a story of a flea, which almost sacrifices himself to save a friend. The ant falls in the river; he can’t swim and will drown if a flea won’t rescue him. A devoted friend tries to help – he needs a rope to take out an ant from water; that is why he asks help from: a pig, oak, crow, hen, millet pit, mouse, cat and a cow. All of them ask for something in exchange for their help. A tiny flea is exhausted, but doesn’t give up and finally his efforts successfully end – he rescues an ant and unlike other characters, he does everything unselfishly. The true friendship is a precious gift which is given only those who have kind heart and pure spirit.directed by — Dimitri Khvtisiashvili, Gia Marganiamusic directed by — Zurab Gagloshvilichoreography by — Gia Marganiascript editor — Dimitri Khvtisiashvilicast: Nikoloz Nanitashvili, Gia Margania, Nikoloz Paikridze, Mariam Khukhunaishvili

The Tale Of The Roe

Beautifully written by famous Georgian writer Vazha-Pshavela and marvelously performed with puppets, it is the story of a young deer, born in the dark woods and mountains of Georgia. The main character – lovely baby deer discovers the beautiful world around him together with his mother, where flora and fauna co-exist in harmony and love. He meets birds and animals, dead trees and beautiful flowers, sullen rocks and murmuring water-stream, and at the end, he meets people – the little boy wants to take a cute deer with him, his mother says – no, every creature has to live free. But, finally, the tragic ending is unavoidable – a hunter kills a mother-deer and young deer is fated to live unprotected in fear and loneliness. The story shows wild animals and their struggle for surviving in the woods, avoiding the threat of humans; one of our aims was to explain children (and not only children, but adults) a negative effect of mankind on the environment. As audience leaves the theatre, he thinks about the compassion and love, about a choice that every human has to make. The whole show is a unique experience, opening the eyes of the audience to the puppetry world and its endless possibilities. The performance is followed by Georgian music, song verses and dances, which made it enjoyable for both - kids and adults. 🎥Directed by Nikoloz Sabashvili🛍Stage Manager: Keti Qantaria🎼Music Directed by Nikoloz Sabashvili📚Script Editor: Nikoloz Sabashvili➡️Cast: Goga Beridze, Irine Kukuladze, Natia Kupatadze, Levan Katsiashvili, Rati Navadze, Nino Papiashvili, Ekaterine Sharikadze, Ketevan Chachua, Eka Khatiashvili, Mariam Khukhunaishvili
