Under the direction of Robert Battle, Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater continues to nurture a new generation of choreographers steeped in the African-American experience. With repertoire that looks back to seminal works like Ailey’s own Revelations, and new material that engages with vital social movements, the company creates dances with the power to transform. This performance is part of Cal Performances’ Berkeley RADICAL Joining Generations strand, which explores the work of four generations of African-American choreographers who have expanded the boundaries of contemporary dance. Each speaks profoundly and deliberately to identity in different ways. More information at calperformances.org/berkeley-radical-joining-generations.
