Earlier this week, we had the wonderful pleasure of being a guest for the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre at the Segerstrom Center for the Arts.

If you have a passion for the theatre and dance, you need to take the time this weekend to see Alvin Ailey which plays this weekend from Friday, April 8th – Sunday, April 10th.

It is a breathtaking, beautiful work of art, expressed through several modern dance performances; the most popular being Revelations. This is one of the most well known pieces and it was the first time we’ve seen an entire audience up clapping, dancing at the end with such enthusiasm!! The energy of the room was so lively and intense; emotions of happiness exuding from each person.

We also saw a couple of new pieces; our favorite this evening being Exodus. A stunning work of dance; delivering a combination of high energy, amazing footwork along with a strong spiritual message. The music and emotion of the message performed, left us breathless and gave us chills. Absolutely gorgeous!!

The work and talent these dancers show on stage leaves us speechless, as they glide across the stage. Displaying their collective accuracy, passion, strength and beauty for the duration of each set; telling a lovely story; one that stirs the emotions within the theater patron. We are in complete awe of each of these talented, beautiful dancers. Bravo!
