André Megerdichian

André Megerdichian has worked with such companies and choreographers as the Limón Dance Company, Dance Kaleidoscope, The Mary Anthony Dance Theatre, Janis Brenner and Dancers, Seán Curran, and Daniel Charon, among others. As a co-founder and the Director of New Works for the Resonance Collective he is drawn to creating interdisciplinary, collaborative works driven by narratives of transformation and discovery. His work is rooted in the deeply humanistic, highly physical, explorations of modern dance traditions while exploring the diverse tensions and curiosities of today. André is an Assistant Professor at the University of South Carolina and travels extensively, creating choreography, and teaching masterclasses and workshops throughout the United States, Europe, and China. Raised in Beirut, Greece, and Switzerland, André started dancing during his senior year at military school and holds a BFA from Butler University, and an MFA in Choreography from the California Institute of the Arts.
