À propos de l’épisode

In this NAC Dance podcast, Cathy Levy chats with Madeleine Onne, Artistic Director of Hong Kong Ballet, on the occasion of the company’s March 2016 National Arts Centre debut. Madeleine notes that dance chose her from an early age and explains how a passion for this art form led her to the role of principal dancer with the Royal Swedish Ballet, the creation of its offshoot Stockholm 59 Degrees North, and her eventual appointment as Artistic Director of the RSB. In 2009, she embraced the opportunity to join Hong Kong Ballet where she has worked diligently to develop the company of 40 dancers of various nationalities that specializes in classical and contemporary work and tours extensively. She looks forward to a future where it will have a permanent home from which to welcome the world.
