Megan Morrison

Megan is a Haitian-Canadian dance artist and emerging choreographer residing on the traditional, unceded territory of the Snuneymuxm First Nation, where she has the privilege to live, work, play, and raise her family. She trained at the Royal Winnipeg Ballet School, with Paris Opera Ballet teachers, among others and is a graduate of the Simon Fraser University School for the Contemporary Arts majoring in dance. She has performed works by choreographers such as Lesley Telford, Wen Wei Wang, Dr. Henry Daniel, and Rob Kitsos. She has worked with choreographers such as Meredith Kalaman, Joshua Beamish’s MOVEthecompany, and SQx Dance Company where she toured across Canada to teach and perform contemporary dance to youth.

She is currently a selected artist in the New Works 2026 Cohort Program. Through the programs mentorship and guidance, Megan is advancing her creative vision by developing immersive, interdisciplinary dance works for both stage and screen that combine her skills in photography, drawing, and animation.

Megan continues to evolve her creative practice while balancing life as the mother of her daughter, a role that enriches and informs her artistic vision.

Every living person moves through the world in a body that carries its own narrative. Each gesture, posture, and physical experience is imbued with meaning, offering insight into the interiority and multiple facets of the human condition. Dance is powerful in its ability to give form to these intricacies of inner life, allowing the body to become a kind of common ground. It is from this place, the body, that I hope to encourage audiences to become more attuned to themselves. Through my work, by making visible the language of the body, I aim to move audiences across the proscenium divide that separates performer and viewer. In doing so, I hope they may find a deeper connection to the narratives they carry within themselves and an entry point into the intimate space of their own internal world.
