Philadelphia Dance Company (aka Philadanco), Philadelphia, PA
Philadanco, founded by Joan Myers Brown in 1970, has established itself as one of America’s foremost modern dance repertory ensembles blending African-American, ballet, jazz, and cutting-edge styles. In our humble estimation, the troupe ranks right up there with our other personal favs, the Dance Theatre of Harlem and Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre. So, if you’re in town when Philadanco is performing, don’t miss it. Those of us who aren’t lucky enough to make it to Philly, keep your eyes and ears open because the company frequently tours the U.S. as well as internationally.
