Celebrate Black History Month with the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater from February 7-10 at the Citi Performing Arts Center.

Founded in 1958 in New York City, this dance troupe has been called “the worlds most successful modern dance company.” Since its introduction at the 92nd Street Young Men’s Hebrew Association, it has changed the perception of modern dance along with promoting the African-American cultural experience.

This weekend includes the world premiere of The Groove to Nobody’s Business, the company premiere of Firebird, a new production of Reflections in D, along with many other amazing performances.

    I have seen Ailey performances in Boston for the last two years, and it never gets old! The combination of athleticism and artistry is really inspiring. Revelations always gets me excited, even if I’m watching it for the upteenth time.
