General Info

ABOUT THE COMPANY Alpha Omega Theatrical Dance Company was founded in 1972 with the primary mission of expanding opportunities to provide a platform for multi-cultural choreographers and dance artists and is an example of the best of the American melting pot. The main techniques employed are modern and the richness in background is such that the audience is treated to many different styles and influences. The dances range from urban life to that of tribal influence, from abstract to the dramatic. The company takes pride in treating its audience to an energetic, uplifting, cultural, and all around entertaining experience filled with passion. Jennifer Dunning of the New York Times said Alpha Omega has a quiet but unignorable voicethat intensity is consistent with the company's very fine dancing which brims with ardor even at its most abstractly physical. Alpha Omega's extensive performance history includes local, national and international engagements at venues such as Lincoln Center Out of Doors and Alice Tully Hall, Kennedy Center's Millennium Stage, Smithsonian Institute, Queens Theater on the Park, Aaron Davis Hall, Brooklyn Academy of Music, Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, Lehman College, Florida A&M University, Art and Culture Center of Hollywood Florida, King Arts Complex in Columbus Ohio, and a tour of Southern Italy. Alpha Omega has also participated in various festivals including Dancer's Responding to Aids, the Charlotte Dance Festival, Women In Dance at DTW, Fiorello Festival Dance Now at LaGuardia Concert Hall, Downtown Dance Festival at the World Trade Center, Dance Theater of Harlem's Street Festival and Open House Series, Fourth Arts Block Festival, the Winter and Summer Dance Mobile Series, DCA's Midday Series, NuDance Now Festival and NY Family Arts Festival at the Theatre of Riverside Church, Dance Harlem, the Battery Dance Festival Other notable performances include the AFTRA and SAG celebration of African Americans in Television and Film, a DOW Chemical Industrial, and the Jerry Lewis Telethon. In addition to its critically acclaimed repertory favorites, Alpha Omega Theatrical Dance Company will feature the work of master choreographer Eleo Pomare.
