Heidee Lyn Alsdorf (she/they)

is a collaborative performance artist whose work bridges concert dance, physical theater, and somatic practices to explore community, ecology, and the possibilities of collective creation. Heidee has performed in originally devised works internationally with companies including Broken Jump Theatre (Italy), Spazio Seme (Italy), and Divadlo Continuo (Czech Republic), as well as with choreographers such as Giorgio Rossi and Isabel Lewis.

Since returning to Northwest Arkansas in 2022, Heidee has collaborated with RumWolf Productions, Flyover Contemporary Dance, and TheaterSquared, contributing to the region's growing arts scene. Their choreographic work has been featured at the Inverse Performance Art Festival, DanceChanceNWA, the Fayetteville Movement Festival, COLLIDE, Rockin’ for the Ribbon, and the University of Arkansas.

As a teacher and facilitator, Heidee fosters experimentation and cross-disciplinary dialogue. In the Department of Theatre at the University of Arkansas, their courses emphasize cultural literacy through lecture, dialogue and movement practices. Outside of academia, they regularly host artist incubators in collaboration with multimedia artist and filmmaker, Jessica Hale. These spaces offer unique opportunities for local artists to experiment, explore, cross-pollinate, and deepen their creative practices in conversation with other artists.

A recipient of the Community Activator Award from Mid-America Arts Alliance, Heidee was the lead artist of On Our Way, a multimedia dance incubator investigating queerness, ecology, and collective creativity. Their work is deeply committed to nurturing equitable and imaginative futures through artmaking and community engagement.
