Constance Anderson is a current MFA Modern Dance and Screendance Certificate candidate at the University of Utah. Teaching assistant, choreographer, and performer, she has presented in festivals nationally and internationally in both Greece and Thailand. 

While in Salt Lake City during Master’s studies, she has presented in the Salt Lake Film Festival, participated as a featured choreographer in both Repertory Dance Company’s choreographic competition Regalia, and the choreographic intensive Playground, and served as a choreographer for several productions at the University of Utah's Theatre Department. Outside of her teachings at the University, Anderson has taught technique for Repertory Dance Theatre and Dance Class for Humans. She also recentlyreceived her certification as a Theatrical Intimacy Coordinator.

In 2019, Anderson founded her company, Sock Opera Dance, to explore the relationship between dance choreography and its venue. She combines philosophy and movement, reframing the proscenium theatre as a site for site-specific choreography, in addition to repurposing non-traditional spaces for film, theatre, and dance installations.

Anderson formerly created work in central Wisconsin, forming an artist’s collective, vying for all artists to have a platform. She choreographed for the Wisconsin University System’s Theatre and Dance departments, creating original work and setting repertory choreography for Li Chiao-Ping Dance for whom she professionally performed and toured with. She will continue to set work in Salt Lake City, Utah, in film, dance, and theatre.
