First Flights
A fledgling choreographer takes off
by DEBORAH JOWITT for the Village Voice

Todd Williams performed with the New York City Ballet from 1990 to 1994 and with Stephen Petronio's company from 1995 to 2002. Both lineages mate companionably in his splendid dancing — soft yet muscular, precise yet free-flowing. He has only recently begun to choreograph. ...

Williams showed three pieces in the new, medium-sized theater in the Joan Weill Center (home of the Alvin Ailey American Dance Center and its school).
