As the oldest and most celebrated modern dance company in America, founded in 1926, the Martha Graham Dance Company has expanded contemporary dance’s vocabulary of movement and forever altered the scope of the art form. This performance features classics from the Graham repertoire, including Appalachian Spring, Cave of the Heart, Sketches from Chronicle, and other works.
