"...Most dance audiences are content with the usual outlets for expressing appreciation: applause, shouts of bravo and an occasional demand for an encore. Fans of the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater are unique. They whoop it up like nobody else."

"...The program - and all performances in DC - conclude with Mr. Ailey’s beloved Revelations. If you haven’t seen it, you have to. If you have seen it, it’s astounding how fresh the dancers are able to make it despite what seems like hundreds of performances each year. Casting for opening night seemed virtually identical to what I saw in 2025, and while I’d like to see more experimentation in casting on the road, the dancers, Sarah Daley-Perdomo in particular, continue to push themselves and grow."
