Ailey II: The Next Generation of Dance
Tue & Wed, Feb 17 & 18 • 8 pm
Preshow Discussions • 7 pm in the Tina McGuire Theatre. Open to all ticketholders.
For over 50 years, Ailey II has merged the spirit and energy of the country’s finest early-career dance talent with the creative vision of today’s outstanding and emerging choreographers. One of America’s most popular dance companies, Ailey II brings fresh perspectives to Alvin Ailey’s legacy—propelling the next generation forward.
“Clearly, the future is theirs.” —The New York Times
Spotlight on Ailey II
- Founded in 1974 by Alvin Ailey to spotlight rising dance talent and visionary choreographers
- Bridges the gap between student training and professional performance for early-career dancers
- At least half the members of the main company are Ailey II alumni
- Led for 38 seasons by Sylvia Waters, handpicked by Ailey himself
- Now under the direction of Francesca Harper, a former student at The Ailey School, bringing bold, inclusive, and experimental energy
