Program
Martha Graham: Dark Meadow Suite 
Agnes de Mille: Rodeo, featuring live music
Hofesh Shechter: CAVE


“One of the seven wonders of the artistic universe.” The Washington Post

“As spellbinding and prescient as ever.” The New York Times

Recognized as a primal artistic force of the 20th century, Martha Graham single-handedly defined contemporary dance as a uniquely American art form. In this evening of new and reimagined works framing a Graham classic, the company performs Hofesh Shechter’s high-energy CAVE and Graham’s Dark Meadow Suite, an abstract work about life’s journey and the search for connection with one’s self and one’s community. A reconstruction of Agnes de Mille’s Rodeo rounds out the program, with a reorchestration of Aaron Copland’s score performed by a live bluegrass ensemble.
