The arts are so important during stressful times. Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater is the latest arts organization to offer free streaming content.
The dance company is launching Ailey All Access as a new platform for sharing past performances, short films, interviews, and even dance classes.
It kicks off on Monday, March 30th with a 7 p.m. release of Alvin Ailey’s moving Revelations, a critically acclaimed performance that is Ailey’s most famous work. The video will remain online until Thursday, April 2nd at 7 p.m. You can watch online here.
