With gratitude and excitement, we introduce the 2022 Conference Chairs.

(Program and Local Arrangements Chairs)



Peter Dickinson is Professor and Graduate Program Chair in the School for the Contemporary Arts at Simon Fraser University, where he also directs the Institute for Performance Studies and edits the open access journal Performance Matters. He has published extensively on dance, theatre, film, and live art. Peter’s most recent book is My Vancouver Dance History: Story, Movement, Community (McGill-Queen’s University Press, 2020), which focuses on his collaborations (as a writer, researcher, facilitator, outside eye, co-creator, and occasional mover) with several Vancouver-based dance artists and companies. He also writes plays, some of them with movement, and his most recent audio drama, At the Speed of Light, can be streamed from Pi Theatre at the end of March 2022.



Hari Krishnan is a Bessie (New York City) and Dora (Toronto) Award nominee dance artist, scholar, and teacher. He is Chair and Professor of Dance in the Department of Dance at Wesleyan University and the artistic director of Toronto-based company inDANCE. His choreography explores post-colonial complexities in South Asian dance and queer themes, as well as the intersection of traditional and global contemporary dance forms. His extensive body of work is based on critical perspectives on Bharatanatyam, fused with contemporary global dance styles and postmodern social critique. His scholarly interests include queer identities in dance performance, contemporary dance from global perspectives, colonialism, post-colonialism and Indian dance, Bharatanatyam in Tamil cinema and the history of courtesan dance traditions in South India. His monograph, Celluloid Classicism: Early Tamil Cinema and the Making of Modern Bharatanatyam (Wesleyan University Press, 2019) won a special citation from the 2020 de la Torre Bueno© First Book Award Committee of the Dance Studies Association. The book has been hailed as “an invaluable addition to the scholarship on Bharatanatyam.”



Allana Lindgren is an Associate Professor and Acting Dean of Fine Arts at the University of Victoria (BC, Canada).  She received her BA (Honours) in English Literature from the University of Victoria, her MA in Dance History from York University and her Ph.D. in Theatre History from the Graduate Centre for Study of Drama at the University of Toronto. She has been a visiting faculty member at the University of Calgary and a Research Visitor at the University of Ottawa’s Institute of Canadian Studies.

Her research and publications have been supported by a variety of funding agencies, including the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada and the Canada Council for the Arts. She is currently a co-investigator of "Gatherings: Archival and Oral Histories of Canadian Performance," a nation-wide SSHRC-funded Partnership Development Grant.
