Live, In Living Color

These dance acts I DREAM of seeing live one day, in living color:

JANET JACKSON.

ALVIN AILEY AMERICAN DANCE THEATER.

RUSSIA'S BOLSHOI BALLET.Janet - words cannot describe how much I love her choreo, dancing, delivery, music, music for my own dance classes/teams, and how much she has revolutionized the performance of commercial hip hop.

Alvin Ailey - love love love the work this company does; the dancers are phenomenal; the choreo is always cutting edge for contemporary dance; beautiful. Their dancers have perfect lines, and inpiring angles to work with. Alvin Ailey is one of the premier multi-ethnic dance companies in America. I really identify with their American roots and principles, and their cultural background.

The Bolshoi - enough said. The famed Bolshoi Theater of Russia is arguably the top ballet in the world, having starred dancers from the ranks of Mikhail Baryshnikov. It has parented the premier Bolshoi Ballet Academy. It is globally known for productions of Swan Lake, Sleeping Beauty, Don Quixote, The Nutcracker, Giselle, Spartacus, and countless others.
