Mission

The mission of the Mark Morris Dance Group is to develop, promote, and sustain dance, music, and opera productions by Mark Morris and to serve as a cultural resource to engage and enrich the community.

About

Founded in New York City in 1980 by artistic director and choreographer Mark Morris, the Mark Morris Dance Group (MMDG) has been called 'the preeminent modern dance organization of our time' (Yo-Yo Ma), its members receiving 'highest praise for their technical aplomb, their musicality, and their sheer human authenticity' (Bloomberg News). Live music and community engagement are vital components of the dance group, which has toured with its own musicians, the MMDG music ensemble, since 1996. Through community and education programming, the dance group provides opportunities in dance and music to people of all ages, with and without disabilities while on tour internationally and at home at the Mark Morris Dance Center in Brooklyn, NY.
