From September 2023 through May 2024, we celebrated the work of world-renowned performing artists and felt the power of live performing arts alongside you, our incredible audience. Together, we experienced ~80 music, dance, and theater performances; considered a multitude of perspectives—both artistic and academic—on our Illuminations theme of “Individual & Community”; engaged in a special residency with the one and only Mitsuko Uchida; hosted an enjoyable and impactful gala evening celebrating our longtime partners at Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater; and created opportunities for younger generations to foster a relationship with live performance; to name a few highlights.

Before we fully turn our attention to the incredible 2024–25 season that lies ahead, we wanted to offer this brief video as a send off to reminisce on all the magic that took place on our stages and in our halls over the past nine months. On behalf of Cal Performances, thank you to each one of you who played a role in building community and supporting the performing arts in Berkeley!
