WHO WE ARE

The Moving Architects brings people together through dance across performance, education, and conversation. Through the creation of new choreography, teaching, community engagement, and Movers & Shapers: A Dance Podcast, the company continues to explore how dance can create connection, share experiences, and open new ways of seeing and relating to one another.

MOVING TESTIMONIES

  • “Coup showed her unique aesthetic vision…the costumes were full of visual intrigue… their movements conveyed power and prestige… it all felt like a Lord of the Flies danced by women. Coup was a movement illustration of the way insidious power dynamics evolve when humans gather.”

    - Kathryn Boland
    DIYDancer Magazine

  • “A fresh and daring aesthetic.”

     - Dance Informa Magazine

  • “This project is one I will be able to hold up for years to come as a great example of a collaborative project between two organizations, as well as a deep engagement between the humanities and the arts. Bravo.”
