BRIEF INTRODUCTION
Cloud Gate 2 was founded in 1999 by Lin Hwai-min, the Founder and Artistic Director of Cloud Gate Dance Theatre of Taiwan, with the late Lo Man-fei, a choreographer and former Cloud Gate dancer, as its Artistic Director. Since Lo's passing in 2006, Lin has acted as the company's director.
Unlike most junior companies, Cloud Gate 2 does not prepare dancers for Cloud Gate, nor does it perform Lin Hwai-min’s choreographies. It showcases talented young dancers in original works by innovative young choreographers. The company’s annual season, Spring Riot, is one of the most anticipated art events in Taiwan.
The company's current repertoire consists of works by Bulareyaung Pagarlava, who has been twice commissioned to create works for the Martha Graham Dance Company, award-winning Cheng Tsung-lung and Huang Yi, as well as Wu Kuo-chu, the late Artistic Director of the Tanztheater at Staastheater Kassel.
In addition to its concert performances, Cloud Gate 2 also reaches out to tens of thousands of people through residency programs on campuses and grass-roots communities in Taiwan.
Cloud Gate 2 made its first international tour in 2012. Reviewing its New York debut at the Joyce Theater, the New York Times said, 'Talent and skill require little translation... Cloud Gate 2 has those virtues, it's only right that they should be shared with the rest of the world.'
