JUMP TO:
Interim Artistic Director Matthew Rushing presents Sacred Songs, which resurrects and reimagines the spirituals used in the original version of Alvin Ailey’s seminal Revelations that were later omitted. Finding Free, by former Company member Hope Boykin, is an exploration into the sources of people’s personal freedoms, with an original score by Matthew Whitaker. Former Company member Jamar Roberts’ Al-Andalus Blues is set to music by Roberta Flack and Miles Davis. Many Angels by Lar Lubovitch, known for his lush choreography and musicality, is his first world premiere for the Company. The season will also include the 25th anniversary return of Ronald K. Brown’s blockbuster Grace, and a new production of Elisa Monte’s mesmerizing Treading.
The season is dedicated to the life and legacy of Artistic Director Emerita Judith Jamison (1943-2024).
