Morgan Gregory (b. Richmond, Virginia) is a transdisciplinary performer/choreographer/… who focuses on reimagining Afro-diasporic imagery through a futurist lens. In her choreographic and performance work development, she constantly explores ancestral importance, and in this continuous effort of understanding, she dreams within intersectional identities. Morgan is a graduate of the Ailey/Fordham BFA program and was honored as a Denise Jefferson Memorial Scholar, majoring in African and African American Studies and Dance. Morgan has toured with Julien Creuzet/Ana Pi on a multi-disciplinary project, Algorithm Ocean True Blood Moves, to the Dakar Biennale, National Opera & Ballet, Brown University, and Performa Biennale. In 2024, she was named a recipient of the LiftOff Residency with New Dance Alliance, a fellow with The Performance Project-University Settlement, and a BAX Space Residency Grantee. Morgan presented research explorations of the Afrofuturist movement and a dance-focused film entitled Afrofuturism: The Black Body as an Immortal Canvas of Storytelling, Resistance, and Mysticism at the Association for the Study of the Worldwide African Diaspora (ASWAD-St. Louis, Missouri), November 2025. She has premiered performances at Mark Morris, Triskelion Arts, Movement Research at Judson Church, Arts on Site, University Settlement, and more, all of which range from proscenium-situated to community-centered cyphers and video installations.
NEW NEW NEW is a performance-based work set within musical vignettes and scenic structures, which works to allegorize a story of excessive egotistical solution building. These vignettes utilize live sound building to create a mosaic that exposes misguided and exploited forms of aid intended for communities that have a historical lack of resources and promise. This work will explore the trajectory of aid and labor as it becomes increasingly assimilated into dominant capitalist superstructures, examining the degradation of function and community concern in favor of market value, status, and clout.

“Congratulations on your Performance Mix #34: Remotely Yours initiative. I hope you all feel delighted with the experience. I must admit that it challenged me to do something a little bit out of my zone. But I am quite happy with the outcome. The first project featuring my son! It will be an unforgettable moment when we will look back at it in a few years.”
