By Donald Munro

Here is a fast and furious ticket giveaway: You can win a pair of tickets to one of the local highlights of the dance year: a performance featuring New York-based Ailey II. The highly regarded ensemble, which is being brought to town by the Lively Arts Foundation, performs 7:30 p.m. Friday, Jan. 30, at the Tower Theatre.

I’ve seen the company perform several times and am always floored by the consummate creativity and technique these highly trained dancers bring to the stage. To enter, leave a comment on this post. Deadline for entry is 10 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 29. I’ll be notifying a winner before midnight. Please make sure to check your email on Friday morning to see if you were lucky.

    I move like a one-legged slug and might learn something from this performance–plus the dancers are 3D (what a treat from 2D entertainment)!
