The company that carries forward the name of master modern dancer and choreographer Alvin Ailey is—to put it simply—simply breathtaking.
More than 25 million people in 71 countries have seen Revelations, making it the most widely viewed modern dance work in the world. It takes a special work to remain as timeless as when it was created in 1960—and it takes a special company to perform it with unparalleled artistry. Starting in 1973, the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater has made regular visits to Hancher. The company is a powerful incubator of pure talent, and you’ll watch as Ailey’s newest dancers showcase their skills alongside the virtuosity of the most tenured artists. The company will showcase a mixed repertory program of signature Ailey classics and new works from the most dynamic choreographers of today—the performance will conclude with the soul-stirring masterpiece Revelations.
“The thing about the dancers of Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater is that they are precision performers—technique visible, placings academic—but at the same time, they can elasticate and undulate their bodies; they can be sensual and spiritual. Above all, they dance with great sincerity.” —The Guardian
