About The Organization

Applicable for the following performances:

• Arooj Aftab, March 23rd

Grammy Award-winning musician Arooj Aftab is a creative force to be reckoned with. Since bursting onto the scene in the early 2010s, the Pakistani singer, composer, and producer has transcended boundaries of genre and geography to produce an impressive body of work. She mixes elements of jazz, indie pop, folk, and various other genres to create lush soundscapes the listener won't soon forget. Join us for an intimate evening with one of the world's most inventive songwriters.

• Rhiannon Giddens, featuring Martha Redbone, Pura Fé, and Charly Lowry, March 26th

Pulitzer-winning composer and Futures Artist-in-Residence Rhiannon Giddens continues to bring untold stories and essential traditions to the stage. This time, she'll collaborate with Martha Redbone, Pura Fé, and Charly Lowry for a colorful celebration of indigenous artistry.

Rhiannon Giddens has made a singular, iconic career out of stretching her brand of folk music, with its miles-deep historical roots and contemporary sensibilities, into just about every field imaginable. A two-time GRAMMY Award and Pulitzer Prize-winning singer and instrumentalist, MacArthur "Genius" grant recipient, and composer of opera, ballet, and film, Giddens has centered her work around the mission of lifting up people whose contributions to American musical history have previously been overlooked or erased, and advocating for a more accurate understanding of the country's musical origins through art.

• Martha Graham Dance Company, April 5th

Since 1926, the Martha Graham Dance Company has been a leader in an evolving art form. Today, the world's oldest modern dance company is embracing a new programming vision that showcases masterpieces by Graham alongside newly commissioned works from contemporary artists.

In 2024, the Company brings this vision to Chapel Hill via Jamar Roberts' potent collaboration with Rhiannon Giddens. This work will live alongside Rodeo, Agnes de Mille's 1942 classic, and Maple Leaf Rag, Graham's last completed dance, set to ragtime compositions by the great Scott Joplin.

The mission of Carolina Performing Arts is to spark curiosity, inspiring all members of our community to discover and more fully engage with the world.

We collaborate with dynamic and compelling artists from across the globe to create novel, mission-driven performing arts experiences in partnership with our community. We also open our venues to others to explore, create, and celebrate their own work.
