This week, Alvin Ailey began its first ever virtual season and, I must say, I’m here for it!
Though I’m not one for tradition, one of the staples of my annual holiday routine was attending an Alvin Ailey show while living in New York City. One year, I even went in July when they had special performances at the Lincoln Center.
I’m so glad I don’t have to miss their season this year! Thanks, #corona! **Every dark cloud has a silver lining….**
Here’s a sample of the season. I never tire of watching the troupe perform Wade in the Water, but this gives me chills. Bravo!
