Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater

Power and elegance. Tenderness and strength. Precision and passion. It is hard to describe America’s most beloved dance company without evoking all the glorious complexities and contradictions of human experience. For more than a half-century, Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater has embodied these traits with performances that uplift and transform, from Ailey’s own classic Revelations to new works commissioned from the world’s leading choreographers.
