JADE PRIMICIAS (Dancer) leapt into the rabbit hole in 2018, joining MOMIX for the thrilling creation of Alice. In addition to touring with the company, Jade enjoys teaching dance and English and performs as a guest artist with Pilobolus, Connecticut Theater Dance Company, and Tennessee Ballet Theater. As Associate Creative Director of Tennessee Ballet Theater from 2015 to 2018, Jade collaborated with Artistic Director Erin Walter to produce site-specific performances retelling Memphis history through dance. Funded by the Jim Wayne Miller and Beverly Veenker Foundations, Jade established an artistic residency in Grantham, England in 2013. This culminated in a series of performances and research-based publications on contemporary dance improvisation in the UK and USA. Jade graduated summa cum laude from the Mahurin Honors College at Western Kentucky University with a dual degree in Dance and English after having grown her love of the arts in small-town Kentucky studios. Jade has since studied Limón technique and pedagogy under Colin Connor, Debra Noble, Risa Steinberg, and Dante Puleio. Jade joined MOMIX in 2018.
