Three very different vintage works by Ronald K. Brown on offer at the Joyce Theater on the occasion of Evidence's 40th anniversary.

An era has come to an end at Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, its repertory in admirable shape, its dancers even more so. 

There is no modern dance troupe as likeable as the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater. Their dancers are warm, exciting and beautiful to watch and they never fail to please audiences.

A performance that initially struggled, concluded on a joyous, infectious note.

Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater proves its versatility in this Sadler's Wells programme, confirming its place as one of the world's greatest dance companies.

It's got a lot of appeal, with a diverse range of choreography, and offering audiences the chance to see excellent dancing and even some partnerships forming from different companies.

With choreographers like Ronald K. Brown and Kyle Abraham working with the company, the repertory might finally match the talents of the dancers.

A varied programme that failed to meet the highs of the company's opening night. 

Intricate hip-hop, sinuous African, lyrical ballet and glorious gospel held together with powerful contemporary technique: you are hit by huge waves of happiness and end the show smiling.

Art is often used to tell a story, and an image or a score can transport its audience to another time and place. At the Joyce, Ballet Hispanico tells the story of Latino dance and its roots across continents and oceans.Program A opens with Nube Blanco (White Cloud), Annabelle Lopez Ochoa’s choreography to music by María Dolores Pradera.
