Ririe-Woodbury Dance Co. Tickets

The Ririe-Woodbury Dance Co. is a cornerstone of Salt Lake City’s performing arts landscape. Founded in 1964 by Joan Woodbury and Shirley Ririe, the company has long been dedicated to presenting contemporary dance that engages, challenges, and inspires audiences of all ages. Since 2003, the company has served as the house company to perform full evenings of Alwin Nikolais’ works in partnership with the Nikolais/Louis Foundation, a hallmark of their repertoire and a testament to their commitment to innovative, provocative dance.

Under the artistic directorship that began with Daniel Charon and continues with the announced transition to Leslie Kraus in 2025, Ririe-Woodbury remains focused on accessibility, education, and community engagement. The company’s ongoing mission—Dance is for Everybody—drives extensive school and community programming, ensuring that audiences across Utah have opportunities to experience modern dance through performances, workshops, and outreach.
