Stories told by dance have always been the strong suit of the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater (AAADT). Since it was founded in 1958, the company has always showcased compelling stories, captivating and intense choreographies, vivid expressions, and incredible talent. The dancers you see from AAADT were originally trained and honed by esteemed African-American dancer Alvin Ailey. Since his passing, Alvin Ailey, the people behind the company, has continued its founder’s legacy by providing audiences with the same intensity and enriching experience through the art of modern dance.

Regarded as one of New York’s premier modern dance companies, the AAADT has established itself as one of the must-see traveling dance groups in North America and beyond. Over the years, AAADT performances have received rave reviews from critics. Alvin Ailey was often praised for infusing parts of Black history into his choreographies. In 2022, a performance of Ailey’s 1986 choreography, “Survivor” was revived in New York. “This is powerful stuff, but the dance vocabulary is pretty much standard Ailey: the same reaching limbs, balances, and hinged layouts familiar from so much of his work,” a New York Times writer wrote. “The set allows for some novel pathos in a duet for the Mandelas. He partners her through the bars, supporting her tilted balances and touching her breasts. They are separated lovers as well as political heroes.”

Over in San Francisco, another review described the show as virtuosic, firm, and thrilling. “The Ailey company is a collection of extraordinarily versatile movement artists who can dance pretty much anything.”

Alvin Ailey’s year 2023 season thrilled and entertained fans across the U.S., Europe, and Israel. The annual tour is often a combination of Ailey’s original choreographies, as well as new presentations from the companies’ esteemed choreographers. Catch the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater at the Paramount Theatre Seattle from Friday, 15th March to Sunday, 17th March.
