Live Performances: Scripps Dances 2026

Join us for Scripps Dances 2026! These year’s performances include a collaboration between the Scripps Dance Department and the Claremont Concert Orchestra, which will team up for a live performance of the Martha Graham Dance Company’s “Steps in the Street” and “Prelude to Action.” This special event celebrates the centennial milestone of both 91 and seminal dance pioneer Martha Graham, marking 100 years of groundbreaking contributions to their respective fields—Graham in modern dance and Scripps in higher education, both as advocates for women advancement. Their parallel legacies symbolize a century of innovation, artistic excellence, and empowerment, reinforcing the enduring impact of both institutions on culture and education.
April 17 @8pm and April 18 @2pm and 8pm
