Miche’ Smith is a dancer, actor and choreographer from Gautier, Mississippi. She grew up training where her mother and aunt trained, leading her to chase a life in the arts in pursuit of telling stories which would inspire and empower others. A graduate of Troy University, Miche’ completed both a Bachelor’s of Science in Theatre and a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance and was awarded the David Dye Award for Excellence in Theatre Artistry. Upon graduation, Miche’ accepted a position as acting apprentice at Aurora Theatre in Atlanta, where she continued to hone her skills as an actor, educator, and performer. Her most recent choreographic story was a commissioned dance film, Count It All, as a Dihvinely Konnecked fellow with Kenny Leon’s True Colors Theatre. Other creative work has been shared at Dance Canvas’ Palette Project and Alabama Dance Festival’s New Works Concert. Miche’ aims to create an evocative, interdisciplinary body of work that encourages us to expose our humanity, examine our wounds, and deeply connect with one another empathetically. This is her first season with Ririe-Woodbury Dance Company and she is excited to grow as both artist and educator.
