November 30 – December 31st
In 2008, a U.S. Congressional resolution designated the Alvin Ailey Dance Company as a “vital American cultural ambassador to the world”. This is the premiere dance company that not only celebrates the uniqueness of the African-American cultural experience but preserves and enriches the distinctively American heritage of modern dance itself. Whether or not you happen to be a dance aficionado, you must witness The Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre for yourself for its emotional, provocative and historical repertoire.
