She's been an Associate on Broadway for the last decade, striving not only to create the best possible choreography in every project she headlines but also to ensure artistic equity and access to dance education for young people. But Ali's impressive resume represents just one facet of her busy life in New York City. She wears many hats, including being a dog mom to Tink.

Alison Solomon, the choreographer on all three of Lapine’s Sondheim productions this year, says, “…she’s also not afraid to explore and develop new ideas. So if something has been done, revival after revival after revival, she’s brave enough to say, ‘Well, what if we do this instead?’”

Swing! is a show that is “faithful to the form but modern in its execution. We try very hard to make the evening authentic and fresh and to generate a sense of spontaneity. We try to capture the enthusiasm of the dance, as well as the moves.
