Join us in the Spring of 2025 as TU Dance celebrates its 20th Anniversary and marks this significant milestone by featuring the works of prominent and renowned African American choreographers that have been supportive and connected to TU Dance since its inception.

These works will include Alvin Ailey’s Witness, Ronald K. Brown’s Four Corners (excerpt), Alonzo King’s MA (duet from Who Dressed You Like A Foreigner?), Camille A. Brown’s New Second Line (excerpt) and the recently premiered work commissioned as part of the Edges of Ailey exhibition at the Whitney Museum by Yusha-Marie Sorzano’s This World Anew. 

TU Dance is deeply honored to share works by makers that have contributed so richly to the American dance landscape through their multidimensional perspectives while voicing the shared human experience, which has been core to our own 20-year history.
