Ailey II Artistic Director Emerita Sylvia Waters has shaped the lives and careers of countless young artists.
During her 38 year tenure the Alvin Ailey Repertory Ensemble grew into a world respected Ailey II- a dance company, choreographic laboratory and “dancing boot camp”. In 2012, shortly before her departure, we had the opportunity to talk with Waters about her career as a dancer, teacher and director.
