Making Dances Is An Act Of Progress;

But The Dance Speaks To Everyone. Otherwise It Wouldn't Work.

No Matter What You Write Or Choreograph, You Feel It Is Not Enough.

Defrantz's Study...is Not The First Book About The Protean Ailey, Who Was Born In Hardscrabble Texas In 1931 And Died In 1989 After Creating Close To 80 Works. But It Is Perhaps The Most Comprehensive, Combining Biography, Criticism, The Analysis Of Dance Criticism, And A Sort Of Corporate History, Siting The Now Firmly Established Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater In The International Cultural Landscape.

It Will Take Very Sophisticated Marketing To Achieve Our Aim Of Bringing More Black People Into The Theater.

Money Is A Never-ending Problem.
