S. Lusikyan’s “The Dragonfly and the Ant”
Tiny wings. Big lessons. A whimsical forest ballet comes to life as Stepan Lusikyan’s The Dragonfly and the Ant dances across the stage in a heartwarming tale of friendship, contrast, and the passage of time.
Crafted for young minds but rich in visual and musical delight for all ages, this enchanting two-act ballet blends traditional choreography with contemporary storytelling—including immersive 3D animation that turns the stage into a magical meadow.
Led by Karen Durgaryan, Honored Artist of the RA, and brought to life through David Galstyan’s expressive choreography, the performance promises wonder, rhythm, and a gentle reminder about balance in life.
