Andrea Muñiz

Andrea Muñiz (they/she) is a non-binary Puerto Rican performer, improviser, bodyworker, and choreographer currently based in Montréal. Andrea is driven by a desire to be undeniably encountered.

Their work Nude Character Shoe has been described as raw, disturbing, and perfectly camp. Andrea holds a B.F.A. from The Boston Conservatory.

House, and Contemporary dance, she trained at Broadway Dance Center in New York and has built a global presence in Paris, Johannesburg, London and New York.
