About Me
Alicia Newcom (married name Jin), she/her. Associate choreographer, performer, and podcast host.
I believe so deeply in creating and facilitating theatrical spaces where everyone’s humanity is seen and respected. That leads how I show up in spaces as an associate choreography, a performer, and a human.
Most recently, I took a step away from performing my full-time track in WICKED on Broadway to put more time and energy toward pursuing associate choreography work more full time. I love nothing more than working with choreographers whose work I believe in and who create intentional, collaborative, respectful spaces in the way that they work to help them bring their work to life.
As an associate, I often also wear the hat of dance captain and/or swing, which I also love very much as I do plan to continue performing. I am intentional in how I lead spaces in any of those capacities in making sure people feel seen, respected, and cared for. I believe when those in leadership positions intentionally create cultures where humanity and respect are a top priority, everyone does their best work and the artwork created as a result is even more impactful.
My love for creating humane theatrical spaces where everyone is seen and respected led to the creation of my podcast, Assembly Guide. The intention of the podcast is to speak about navigating advocating for change in the theatrical industry towards making it safer and more humane, as well as speaking generally about organizing and using one’s voice for advocacy.
I am based in New York City with my husband, creator of Artist Mindset & The Process and NYC photographer, James Jin. Want to create with me? Let me know! I’d love to hear from you!
Recent News
I recently left the Broadway company of WICKED on August 3rd, after three years since making my Broadway debut in July 2022! Here’s a video from our performance of “One Short Day” on Good Morning America, where we performed to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of WICKED in October 2023.
As an associate choreographer, I most recently worked as dance assistant to Mark Myars for the 2025 NBCUniversal Upfronts at Radio City Music Hall while also swinging 24 tracks and as associate choreographer to Billy Griffin for the 2025 Broadway Bares at Hammerstein Ballroom. I also had the awesome opportunity to be Phil Colgan’s associate choreographer for the band Midlake’s new music video Days Gone By, featuring James Lance (seen on Ted Lasso) who was an absolutely incredible, generous, and kind artist to work with. The whole experience was truly magical. Check out my associate choreography tab for more information about my work as an associate choreographer!
I am also a member of the AEA Production Contract negotiating team, currently in negotiations with The Broadway League, fighting for better contracts for Broadway actors and stage managers.
