Cloudgate: Taiwan's Amazing Dance Company

Recommended Posts

Posted

It is one of the great contemporary dance companies in the world with a corps of stunning dancers. The men are young, tall and with incredible bodies. I have seen several performances of the Cloudgate Dance Theatre now celebrating its 50th anniversary. All have been quite wonderful. For those in London, there is another chance to see them at Saders Wells Theatre in Rosebery Avenue from November 30 to December 2 with performances of Lunar Halo.

One of The Guardian newspaper's weekly video picks this week is the streaming of another Cloudgate production Rice on Marquee TV. This includes music from a variety of sources including Hakka Traditional Folk Songs, Bellini, Saint-Saens, Richard Strauss and Chinese composers.

This is a dcumentary made about the company's brilliant founder Lin Hwai-min for the 40th anniversary.
