Ailey Preview for Its 60th Season at NY City Center - New Yorkers Own Home Bragging Rights

I'm gloating because I was fortunate to be amongst the first to see a peek preview for Aileys 60th Anniversary Season.  The evening was hosted by the delightful, welcoming and immensely talented Artistic Director, Robert Battle.  The program contained excerpts from 3 upcoming world premieres; choreographed works by Wayne McGregor, Ronald K. Brown,  Rennie Harris and Robert Battle.  Mr. Brown's THE CALL & Mr. Harris' LAZARUS will be making their world premieres at NY City Center.  McGregor's KAIROS will be a company premiere this season.  JUBA, a work by Mr. Battle, was the first work choreographed for the Ailey Co. in '03 and is being restaged in a new production.  All 4 eminent & honored choreographers have created major works for numerous other prestigious dance companies.  This year the Alvin Ailey American Dane Theater will be performing many of their works accompanied by live music.  Speaking of the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, the dancers are the MOST talented, versatile, expressive, artistic, athletic, graceful and joyous assemblage of dancers in the world.  Simply put, the Alvin Ailey dancers, renowned and celebrated throughout the world, are omnipotent.  The Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater has continued to build upon Mr. Ailey's legacy paving the way for artistry that inspires excellence and brings societal relevance to the forefront.   The best part, as New Yorkers along with Mr. Battle have bragging rights for having the Alvin Ailey Dance Theater in our own backyard.  Just don't miss your opportunity to see them perform here at home in NY City Center.  Tickets sales are going fast get there and get them while they last.  This 60th Anniversary Season is a diamond jubilee celebration poised for toasting and boasting.
