After performing her work in New York, Alex Elliott and Hurricane Sandy came face to face. Physically demanding and emotionally charged, her work made it back to her hometown of Winnipeg and beyond. Her dances have been presented in New York, Toronto, Vancouver, Edmonton, Winnipeg, and Halifax. Alex thanks Tedd Robinson for his ecstasy charged commission Logarian Rhapsody. She is the Artistic Director of her own company Alexandra Elliott Dance, as well as Art Holm, a multidisciplinary performance series in Winnipeg, and the Executive Director of Young Lungs Dance Exchange.
