Founded by Max Lee from Hong Kong, Room 9 Dance Theatre’s productions include: Room 9 (2011), Silence Box (2012) and Talk to Me (2013) both commissioned by Hong Kong Arts Festival; short piece Apple and the Fly (2013) independent production Home (2015) and Galaxy Dreamer (Hong Kong premiere in 2015 and China tour in 2016).
Driven by the founder’s adventurous desire, Room 9 draws creative inspiration from questioning our faith towards existence and human nature in its subconscious level and its relationship with the society. By dissolving the intrinsic barrier between dance and theatre, Room 9 constantly strives for the unity in multimedia performances, in an attempt to push the boundaries of conventional theatre and search for alternatives to express our thoughts and emotions.
For years the company has collaborated with artists from different disciplines, of which the ensemble has incorporated dance, theatre, music, installation and videography into the creative process.
