Martha Graham Dance Company

Marking the 100th anniversary of Martha Graham Dance Company in 2026, the legendary modern dance company continues its three-year Graham100 tour with a celebratory mixed repertory stop at Northrop. Exemplifying its founder’s timeless and uniquely American style of dance, this once-in-a-lifetime performance honors the theme American Legacies.

The stunning “protest set to banjo” piece (The New York Times) We the People (2024) by Jamar Roberts with music by Rhiannon Giddens; a new work by two-time Bessie Award winner Hope Boykin; and the inimitable Martha Graham classic Appalachian Spring, with music by Aaron Copland; and “Steps in the Street” from Graham’s Chronicle, performed by dancers in the University of Minnesota dance program, round out the repertoire. Known as one of the most influential choreographers of the 20th century, Martha Graham’s groundbreaking legacy has inspired generations of artists and continues to captivate audiences worldwide.
