Feng Ye Dance Theatre
Dance theatre (or “Tanztheater” in German) is a form of art initiated in Germany in the late 1960’s. Abolishing the traditional aesthetics and hierarchy of classical ballet, dance theatre emphasizes the equality of performers on the stage and, instead of telling a whole story within the boundaries of the stage, conveys a complete subject by way of putting together like Montage fragmented scenarios and beyond the boundaries and limits of the traditional stage.
As founder and art director of Feng Ye Dance Theatre, Feng Ye will, by utilizing her years of experience as a brilliant dancer, choreographer and director, and in collaboration with dancers, choreographers, visual art performers and musicians around the world, demonstrate at Feng Ye Dance Theatre the very essence of Chinese culture and civilization through dance performances.
