This special performance celebrates the Company’s co-founders, Shirley Ririe and Joan Woodbury in a stunning retrospective tribute and the legendary Alwin Nikolais whose groundbreaking choreography played a pivotal role in the formation of Ririe-Woodbury.

Additionally, Artistic Director Daniel Charon will restage his elegant, On Being (2021), which highlights the beauty of the stunning Company dancers. Bursting with dynamic visuals that explore multimedia dances created over many eras of dance making.
