On April 18, in Batumi, the Batumi Summer Theater hosted another remarkable concert of the “Living Traditions” festival, organized by En Studio. Although this edition did not feature international groups, the evening was filled with fresh energy, new beginnings, and the start of many promising collaborations.

This concert marked a debut collaboration with numerous ensembles, opening the door for future partnerships. More than just a performance, the event became a meaningful platform for building connections, exchanging ideas, and shaping upcoming projects. For both participants and the audience, it was an inspiring experience that laid the groundwork for many exciting plans ahead.

The program presented on stage was diverse and engaging. Audiences enjoyed traditional Georgian dances alongside classical ballet performances and modern Latin choreography. This blend of styles highlighted how Georgian culture continues to evolve—preserving its roots while embracing new artistic expressions.
