Founded in 2008 by artistic director Tao Ye, the company has traversed the Chinese festival circuit, stormed onto the scene in Europe and collaborated with leading artists across diverse fields including theatre, music, cinema, visual art and installation art. With its visionary contemporary dance style, TAO Dance Theater has set itself apart as a company to watch.

Honouring the old, the company aims to push forward into the future, shaping the vocabulary of contemporary dance in China."
