The Movement Theory Lab is a forum for faculty and graduate students interested in dance and movement studies. The lab consists of a reading group and a series of workshops at which members focus on embodied experimentation in partnership with professional dancers. On December 5, 2025, for example, choreographer and artist Moriah Evans joined the Movement Theory Lab to lead a workshop at The Renaissance Society. Following the workshop, Evans began performances of her new work, Scrimmage, presented as part of the Renaissance Society’s Intermissions series.
