The Departments of Dance and Music present Nouveau Now, a program of stunning choreography and live music performances at the gloriously restored 1927 Carolina Theatre in uptown Charlotte.

Celebrating the 100-year anniversary of the Martha Graham Dance Company, the program will feature Adorations, Reimagined, a beautiful Graham work reconstructed by dance professor Kim Jones. Delia Neil’s painterly Ode to Alphonse Mucha will immerse dancers and the audience in lush Art Nouveau, with music by Debussy and Ravel performed by the University Chamber Orchestra.
