Drawing from his early experiences at Lester Horton’s studio and his upbringing in Los Angeles, Alvin Ailey cultivated a profound understanding of dance as a vehicle for cultural expression. This foundation laid the groundwork for Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, which has since become a beacon of artistic excellence, showcasing the vibrancy and richness of the African American cultural experience, transcending boundaries and reshaping the art form itself. Ailey’s pioneering spirit not only transformed modern dance, but also sparked a dedication to education, community engagement and cultural diplomacy. Returning to The Music Center’s Dorothy Chandler Pavilion as part of an exclusive Southern California multi-year residency, Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater presents cutting-edge contemporary premieres and classics including Mr. Ailey’s signature work Revelations.
