Synetic Theater
 
 

"The Synetic Theater traffics in rapturously surrealist stagecraft."
Bob Mondello

Synetic Theater seeks to advance and enrich the theater arts through presentation and education in its unique performance style of a synthesis of the arts, fusing the classical elements of drama, movement, dance, mime, and music into a distinct form of non-realistic theater. As Synetic Theater begins to develop a bridge between the DC and New York theater scenes, the company also seeks to expand its international presence. The theatrical style of Synetic Theater lends itself beautifully to cross-cultural performances, and the company plans to share their work and vision with people from around the world.

Mrs. Tsikurishvili has received ten nominations for Best Choreography and won the award four times (The Idiot, Faust, Macbeth, and Hamlet…the rest is silence).
