  1. Revelations (Alvin Ailey)

    Italic title File Alvin Ailey Revelations.jpg thumb Revelations performed by Alvin Ailey Dance Theater in 2011 Revelations is the signature choreographic work of Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater . It was first produced by Alvin Ailey Alvin Ailey Dance Theater in New York City, New York on January 31, 1960. Revelations tells the story of African American faith and tenacity from slavery to freedom through a suite of dances set to spirituals and blues music. Overview Ailey intended for the dance to be the second part of a larger, evening length survey of African American music which had been begun in 1958 with his work Blues Suite though this was never fully realized. At its premiere, the piece initially had 15 sections, a live vocal chorus, and was an over an hour in duration, and included 2 soloists. Sections were removed as the work evolved, and an extensive tour sponsored by the U.S. Department in 1962 forced Ailey to commit the music for Revelations to recording. The dance then solidified into the three part format seen today. The original score included parts for guitar, percussion and voice. The piece was expanded to include parts for keyboards, drums and electric bass. Ailey did not dance in the world premiere, but as early company personnel shifted, he performed some of its group sections as solos. Revelations is divided into three sections Pilgrim of Sorrow , Take Me To The Water and Move, Members, Move Pilgrim of Sorrow The opening section of Revelations. Ailey described this section as songs that yearn for deliverance, that speak of trouble and of this world s trials ... Howell, Minnie Marshall, Nancy Redi and Corene Richardson. Don Martin.

  1. American Negro Theater

    The American Negro Theater ANT was formed in Harlem on June 5, 1940 by writer Abram Hill and actor Frederick O Neal . It produced 19 plays before closing in 1949. Designed as a community theater group, performances were held in Harlem s Schomburg Library . In 1942, ANT began its Studio Theatre training program for beginning actors. Graduates include Sidney Poitier and Harry Belafonte . Its most successful production, Anna Lucasta play Anna Lucasta , fundamentally transformed the ANT. A white author, Phillip Yordan , wrote the play about a Polish family, but could not find a company to perform it. So he rewrote it to feature a black family. It was performed by the ANT in 1944. Five weeks later the play opened on Broadway theatre Broadway . The ANT received few royalties and the next three ANT plays to appear on Broadway were not successful. Despite this, following the success of Anna Lucasta the ANT became less community centered. From then on, the ANT only featured plays from established white playwrights, and young actors viewed the ANT as a means to break into Broadway productions.
