Back by popular demand, the AGBU Antranig Dance Ensemble will perform at Boston University with the Choir Ensemble of St. Sahag and Mesrob Armenian Church. During the first half of the show, the choir will perform Armenian folk songs, each song beginning with an English explanation of the song's significance. The second part of the show will include the Antranig Dance Ensemble, featuring new dance performances.


The Antranig Dance Ensemble is comprised of over 30 young men and women and performs full-length dance productions throughout the United States and Canada. It has played on some of the premier stages of the world, including Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts in New York, Claude Champagne Hall in Montreal and the State Opera Theater in Armenia.


The Antranig Dance Ensemble was honored for its accomplishments with an invitation to be the first Armenian-American cultural group to ever perform in Armenia, traveling to half a dozen cities during a two-week tour. The following year Antranig sponsored joint productions in the United States with one of the top dance ensembles from Armenia. In a separate tour the ensemble traveled throughout Europe, performing in six cities in ten days.


The choir has put on shows at New York's St. Vartan Cathedral, the Armenian Embassy in Washington, D.C., the United Nations in New York City, as well as performed in Boston, Worcester, Andover, White Plains, Boca Raton, Montreal, Hamilton and Toronto.
