Kumbi Kathawa (Ant Story) was conceived by Anjalika, Chitrasena and Vajira’s daughter. She was inspired by a Russian children's story. The ballet is choreographed and directed by Anjalika and Mahesh, who has also designed the amazing costumes and stage sets. As with any production from the Chitrasena Kalayathanaya, this ballet has been in development for many years, and has been carefully nurtured to reach a level of excellence, in keeping with the standards of the Kalayathanaya.
