High energy dancing and strong dramatic., statements characterize ithe work of the Alvin Aiiey Repertory Ensemble, a young and vibrant dance company which will be appearing at the Fauquier High School auditorium in Warrenton on Saturday, Feb. 28, at 8 p.m.
This event promises to be an evening full of the best in American dance, said Laura Crowne, director of Warrenton’s Moving Arts Center, which is sponsoring the performance.
Three dances are on the evening’s program. Exodus — “Mo\ing All the People” — with music by Bob Marley, reggae songwriter/musician, is dedicated to the fight against apartheid. This dramatic work premiered Jan. 22, 1986, at Riverside Church in New York City.
Knudsen Variations, a “future” fashion show with many costume changes, is set to an electronic score by Kenneth Knudsen.
Tilt, with choreography by George Fasion, Tony award winner of “The Wiz,” turns the stage into a pinball machine, and the music of Patti Labelle, Diana Ross and the Jackson 5 underscores the explosive movement of the dancers. Originally performed by the parent company in 1975, Tilt has been restaged this season by Mr. Faison for the Repertory Ensemble’s current tour.

For the birds
The Fauquier County Parks and Recreation Department urges everyone to share with animal friends during this hard season. Throw out crumbs for the sparrows. Hang suet for the jays. Befriend the birds so they won’t have a hungry winter.
Once you start, kindness means putting out the same food in the same place consistently, as once food is located birds will regularly go back to it.
Try rolling pine cones in peanut butter, then in bird feed and hang with a ribbon. Recycle your tree for a while by propping it up in the yard and hang popcorn, dried cookies, and other tidbits from the branches for birds and small animals.
