Ailey All Access
Ailey On Stage
We know you can’t see the Ailey dancers perform in a theater, so we wanted to make sure you can still find comfort and joy in the beauty of dance by virtually connecting with their performances. For a limited time, Ailey is thrilled to share videos of the Company performing on stage. Watch along with the Ailey community and please consider making a special gift today to help us continue Alvin Ailey’s mission to deliver dance back to the people.

The Show Must Go On
The Ailey dancers may not be in the same place at this moment in time, but they are still finding ways to dance and dance together.
We hope you enjoy their videos in #TheShowMustGoOn series and the "Dancer Diaries" series as much as they enjoyed making them.

How to Support Ailey
Alvin Ailey said, “I believe that the dance came from the people and that it should always be delivered back to the people.” While we are unable to join you in the theater and in the classroom, we hope that the Ailey spirit continues to reach you and your family to bring joy during this uncertain time.
The Ailey organization is committed to doing everything we can to support our dedicated dancers, instructors, and staff. In lieu of purchasing tickets for performances and classes, please consider making a special contribution of any amount today.
Our Sponsors
Ailey All Access replaces the performances that would have been seen during Ailey’s National Tour.
