Alvin Ailey show

Sometimes, I wonder at how awesome my friends are. Sarah, whom I grew up with, but hadn't seen in a while, invited me to watch her cousin perform. Bonus! Her cuz is a dancer in the Alvin Ailey dance troupe. We got great seats, and the performance was awesome! I had been to this show once before, but we were further back. This time, we were in the orchestra, and the performance was amazing. I had grown up reading about Katherine Dunham, so Alvin Ailey holds a special place in my heart... Double bonus, we got to meet her cousin and some friends. My first time meeting real dancers. They were just as beautiful off the stage as they were on the stage. Suffice it to say, I went to bed with a large moony smile on my face.
