I absolutely LOVE and enjoy Alivin Ailey Dance Theatre troupe!! I encourage each and every person to GO and GO again!! THANK YOU, MR. AILEY FOR A WONDERFUL LEGACY!!!!!
I've seen this show several times and this year was by far the MOST amazing... With the departure of Legend Judith Jamison and the transition to Robert Battle, plus the 50th year celebration of Revelations, the show pulled out ALL of the stops... It was the experience of a lifetime... Simply stunning...
With this year being the anniversary of Revolution, it is a MUST! The experience of History and how through all of these years, it remains timeless. All the performances but 1 were choreagraphed by Ailey. They could have been arranged yesterday. Still as breathtaking as ever. I just loved it.
This production was BEAUTIFULLY presented, WONDERFULLY executed. The dancers are absolutely fabulous at translating the LOVE and PASSION for their craft. I left this show with an EXCITEMENT and EXHILARATION that I've haven't felt in a long time after a theatre performance such as this. I would say to those who are thinking about buying tickets to this event - Don't hesitate! You don't want to miss this PERFECT display of dancers that melts into the music, and the message...
I bought these tickets as a gift for my sister, who was a dancer. I bought them because I expected her to enjoy the show, thinking I would "sacrifice" so that she could see something she would enjoy. I am not a dance fan, and have never been to a modern dance performance before in my life. I was very pleasantly surprised by how much enjoyed the show. The dancers' athleticism, strength, and balance is quite amazing. I also enjoyed the music a lot.
CONGRATS TO THE DANCE CREW. YOU WERE MAGNIFICANT. LOOKS LIKE YOU ALL WERE HAVING AS MUCH FUN AS WE WERE IN WATCHING YOU. I AM GLAD I WENT DURING THE OPENING SHOW AND THERE WAS AN ALMOST SOLD OUT SHOW. LADIES YOU WERE GREAT BUT THE GUYS STOLE THE SHOW - ALL OF THE SOLO WERE PERFORM WITH CARE IN EVERY STEP AND MOVE. THANK YOU THANK YOU FOR A DELIGHTFUL EVENING.
For the first time at my daughters' school they had a black history project and she chose Katherine Dunbar. Needless to say we had a better appreciation of the dancers, choreographers, and other artistic personnel/artistry. This is our 4th year and we'll be attending next year if God spare. It just gets better!
Great show,great seats....AMAZING....Cant wate too see them again.
Absolutely amazing and inspiring performance. Choreography invigorating. Costume beautiful. Stage and colors vibrant yet tasteful...
If you've never had the opportunity to see a show, please, please get a ticket fast! The choreography is awesome and the overall show is highly entertaining and artistic. A story told by movement and very little insturment is nothing less than the equivilant of great.
This was the most beautiful energetic show, the dancers were poetic it was a fabulous.
For their first time in Richmond, they made THE BEST impression. I was in awe of the beauty that was, not only the dancers, but the choreography. At times, breathtaking. They all told their story. The dancers did an awesome job. The choreographers deserve all the recognition they can recieve. If they come again, I will be in the audience, AGAIN. I hope they ake this an annouial event. That is my wish.
I see the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre on tour at every possible opportunity. No matter how many times I see Ailey's "Revelations," I find myself inspired and smiling at the end of every show!
This was the best performance I have ever attended. The dancers were fantastic and I will always remember this experience above any other performance.
I have seen Alvin Ailey 98 times from the days of Judith Jamison doing Cry until last night. And this was simply one of the strongest troupes and performances I have seen in years... The positioning and movements were so good that even looking down they were in beautifully in sync. The dancers displayed their personal styles and flair both in old classics and newer material so that they did not just perform they rocked. I am so glad they brought the full troupe to Richmond so I did not have to go to NYC or DC, It truly was spring blessing...
BRAVO!! Excellent performance. Looking forward to more performances of this caliber coming to CenterStage!
The Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre was truly extraordinary. The combination of ballet mixed with other forms of dance, i.e. jazz, African stepping, soul, and the like, provided pure joy and excitement to watch. The performers are so talented; their energy and obvious love of dance mesmerized the audience. The music and songs were just as engaging. The company is extremely talented and I look forward to seeing them perform again the next time they are in the area. Truly magnificent!
As close to a spriritual experience as one can get on a week day.
This was the 6th time I've seen Alvin Ailey & they get better each & every time I see them. My favorite part of every show is always "Revelations". I loved the music, and the costumes! You can't stay in your seat when you go to one of their shows! I would recommend it to anyone & I can't wait to see them again!
Standing ovation from a wildly enthusiatic crowd. What a night. Dancing was awesome. Music, wasn't live, but was pure and plenty loud. A fun evening for adults and children. If you have an aspiring dancer in your midst, bring them! A night to remember.
