OUR MISSION
Founded in 2016, Modern Marvels Dance Company is a project-based contemporary dance collective that amplifies the creative voices of our dancers in order to develop performance art that is honest, beautiful, and accessible to all audiences.
Our work often reflects our lived experiences, bringing personal stories to light through movement in hopes of promoting individual expression and allowing others to find parts of themselves in our art.
MMDC prioritizes working with dancers of diverse backgrounds,
body shapes and sizes, gender identities, and other unique strengths that are typically underrepresented in the dance community.

2025 CREATIVE PROCESS
MMDC is focusing our time and energy on developing new works during the 2025 season. While we don't currently intend to produce an evening-length performance this year, you can expect to see us dancing at showcases and other Chicago dance community events.
We ARE excited for the return of Marvelous Monday, our dance community performance at Northcenter Town Square. Last year, we were able to highlight the work of local companies & individual artists, and can't wait to share the stage with them again this season.
To stay the most up to date, be sure to follow us on Instagram or Facebook.
