About the Company

BEIJING DANCE THEATER was founded 2008 by Yuanyuan Wang in cooperation with the light designer Han Jiang and the set designer Tan Shaoyuan. Together, they created on one hand China´s first contemporary dance ensemble and on the other a hitherto completely unknown constellation of dance organization.


The BEIJING DANCE THEATER consists of 12-18 dancers, all trained in classical ballet.


The great repertoire of the company connects the traditional Chinese culture and dance with classic ballet and contemporary forms of movement. For a couple of years, the BEIJING DANCE THEATER also commissions choreographies out of the country like f.e. Monalita Chen by Marcos Morau.
