The season has had enthusiastic crowds, Taylor classics were well-danced and PTDC will always have Esplanade to make audiences happy.

PTDC really returned in a weeklong residence at City Center and the company looks to be in good overall shape.

Esplanade was the last time the audience would ever see veteran Taylor dancers Michelle Fleet, Jamie Rae Walker and Parisa Khobdeh onstage.

Everywhere you look, there is kindness, consideration and generosity of spirit.

Young ensemble demonstrates their maturity at the Valletta International Baroque Festival.

In a radiant rendition of the classic Esplanade, Paul Taylor's dancers remind us that dancing is, above all, about joy.

Sometimes, glancing through reviews and recordings of Baroque opera arias, one might be forgiven for wondering whether tenors and basses ever appeared on the 18th-century stage – the genre seems dominated by the exotic lives of the castrati and the incredibly exciting music that was written for them.

I should start this review by being honest and explaining that I was not initially excited to see Ailey at City Center. I was prepared to be impressed by the company’s physical aesthetic and not much else – I often think of the company as finely-tuned robots who are capable of demonstrating technical virtuosity but not of moving me in a big way, emotionally.
