Amanda Grace Ewing

I am an Educator, Intimacy Choreographer, and Director-Dramaturg. For me, the thing that ties all of these roles together is advocacy and service to community. As a consultant Educator, I support arts and community non-profits in advancing their inclusion and culture goals. As a Director-Dramaturg, my role is to create productions that serve as a catalyst for social change, both in and outside of the rehearsal and production. And as an Intimacy Choreographer, I collaborate with directors and actors to create repeatable, specific, affirming, and consent based intimacy.

I have built a career where I am able to use the arts to strengthen constituent participation social change driven education. In my professional life I provide training and consultation for staff and students in a higher ed context – specializing in creative social justice engagement. In my role, I create curriculum, oversee budgets, collaborate on campus climate change initiatives, and train facilitators of all levels. Throughout my career, I have been a sought after collaborator, specifically around raising engagement and enthusiasm for inclusion and belonging work.

I have spent much of my arts career collaborating with community driven arts organizations such as A Host of People, a Detroit-based theatre and performance company where I am an the Connectivity Manager and BoxFest Detroit, a women’s directing festival where I am a former Artistic Director. I have a Master of Arts from King’s College, London in Theatre & Performance Studies, am a third generation Arab American, and am based in Dearborn, MI.

I am an arts for social change maker, and I can’t wait to collaborate with you.
