Alvin Ailey
American Dance Theater, beloved as one of the world’s most popular dance
companies, will present 15 performances at Lincoln Center’s David H. Koch
Theater from June 11 to June 22, 2014. Led
by Artistic Director Robert Battle, Ailey’s acclaimed dancers will perform in four
distinct programs of exciting repertory, including a world premiere from Robert Moses – a first-time collaboration
with the Company – the company premiere
of Asadata Dafora’s groundbreaking 1932 solo, Awassa
Astrige/Ostrich, and new productions of Hans van Manen’s Polish Pieces and David Parsons’ signature breathtaking work Caught. Encore
performances of 2013-14 season premieres and new productions such as Wayne
McGregor’s Chroma, and an “Ailey/Ellington” program, as well as Alvin Ailey’s must-see American masterpiece Revelations will give the Company’s dancers many more
ways to inspire!
