Our Team

Michelé Prince is a scholar, writer, choreographer, and collaborative cultural producer. They are a nonbinary hybrid of a person brought up girl and born, raised, and reppin’ Jamaica, WI and South Central LA and now live, very happily, in the DMV. They are activated by the intersections of desire, power, fluidity, and the fantastic. 

Fascinated with utilizing the lens of race, class, gender, and sexuality to study power. Michelé has spent the last 12+ years studying the creation and maintenance of hierarchies, the roots of oppression, and the stifling of difference. Their research and creative interests center masculine of center cultural production, womxn of color speculative thought, movement and dance, storytelling, and mythmaking praxis. And, all things critical race.

They are interested in utilizing the gift of storytelling and the tools of mythmaking, revision, and speculation in order to visualize elsewhere(s) and practices for otherwise—especially for Black and queer people—children and adults. Dancemaking, movement direction, and collaborative art practice is a large part of their mental health regime and worldmaking process.

Michelé holds a Master’s degree from the Harriet Tubman Department of Women, Gender, and Sexuality from the University of Maryland, College Park, and a Bachelor’s Degree in Political Science and Women’s Studies from the University of Washington.
