Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater In Boston

From May 1st to May 4th the Celebrity Series of Boston will present the historic Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater.

Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater grew from a now-fabled performance in March 1958 at the 92nd Street Y in New York City. Led by Alvin Ailey and a group of young African-American modern dancers, that performance changed forever the perception of American dance. The Ailey Company has gone on to perform for an estimated 23 million people at theaters in 48 states and 71 countries on six continents -- as well as millions more through television broadcasts.
