Cloud Gate is the name of the oldest known dance in China. In 1973, choreographer Lin Hwai-min adopted this classical name for the first contemporary dance company in any Chinese speaking community.

 

Through Lin Hwai-min’s choreographies, the company transforms ancient aesthetics into thrilling modern celebration of motion.

 

Cloud Gate has toured extensively with frequent engagements at the Next Wave Festival in New York, the Sadler's Wells Theatre and Barbican Centre in London, the Moscow Chekhov International Theatre Festival, the Movimentos Festival in Germany, and the Internationales Tanzfest NRW directed by Pina Bausch.
