This performance was in my top three all-time performances. The discipline and artistry of the dancers were beautifully supported by the music choices. Thank you, Alberta Ballet, for inviting and hosting the Dance Theatre of Harlem performers. It was a wonderful celebration of Black History Month.
Loved seeing the Harlem Ballet Dancers! The first ballet I have taken my daughter to see and they did not disapppoint. We left the Jub happy.
The skill and talent of these dancers was a delight to experience. My new saying is “If you haven’t seen ballet set to James Brown, have you even really lived?”
The finest performances! This was a very unique moment.
Performance. Topshelf. Dancing to music of James Brown.off the charts .Could watch it again.
It was a fabulous performance that brought so much joy and warmed my heart. A very talented group of ballet dancers!!
The dancing was fun, inspirational and innovative. I loved the mixture of traditional balet and mowtown moves, strength and versatility of the dancers.

The Harlem Ballet was fabulous! The use of light, shadows and silhouettes was fascinating and added to the performance.
