About
Recommended for Grades 5-12.
Marking the 100th anniversary of the Martha Graham Dance Company, the legendary modern dance company presents a program curated especially for middle and high school students. During this hour-long matinee, students will learn about the art of modern dance and the work of Martha Graham, and consider American history from many perspectives, including their own. The matinee will include excerpts from the Graham Americana classic Appalachian Spring, with music by Aaron Copland, as well as the “protest set to banjo” piece (The New York Times) We the People by Jamar Roberts with music by Rhiannon Giddens.
Northrop is grateful to have recently received funding support for the Martha Graham Dance Company Student Matinee to cover the ticket cost for all attendees.
