The first I saw the Alvin Ailey perform I was 9, we were living in New Jersey, and my mom took me to see Judith Jamison dance in Revelations. I wore my velvet coat and it was a Very Big Deal. I saw Revelations again last night and it was just as Big a Deal- just in a different way. Anything I would write about it sounds pretentious- suffice to say by the last dance, Move, Members, Move the audience was literally dancing at their seats, clapping to the music, and shouting with joy.
It was wonderful (and to the cute girl sitting next to me- you get up and dance if you want to. Don't let your silly boyfriend tell you what to do).
