Minus 16

A delightfully eclectic score ranging from Dean Martin to mambo, techno to traditional Israeli music propels Naharin’s phenomenally inventive piece. 

Streams

This standout work was Mr. Ailey’s first full-length dance without a plot—a gorgeous exploration of the architecture of bodies in space, with a percussion score by Miloslav Kabelac.

Journey

Joyce Trisler, one of the Ailey company’s first members, set her ethereal female solo to Charles Ives’s “The Unanswered Question.” 

Revelations with an Expanded Cast of 50

An expanded cast of 50 dancers fills the stage and theater aisles at select performances.  Embracing the full spectrum of the Ailey family, the first company is joined by dancers from Ailey II and selected students from The Ailey School in Alvin Ailey's signature masterpiece.

Journey will be accompanied by live music.
