Melissa Williams is one of the most innovative Choreographer/Directors working in the entertainment industry today. Recognized for her versatility, musicality and keen eye for the stage, Melissa is also known for her sexy, edgy, athletic, ‘rock-n-roll meets theater’ choreography.

Seasoned in creating and staging dance sequences, Melissa has worked with some of the most established artists, actors and directors in the industry including Prince, George Michael, Bryan Adams, Michael Caine, Randy Quaid, Catherine McCormack, Carmen Electra, David LaChapelle, McG, and Joseph Kahn. Over the past two years Melissa Williams and her company DM Creative have choreographed and musically staged several live productions around the world including Grease-the musical, HAIR-the musical, Generations, Bon Voyage, Piano Man and Undercover.
