MICHAEL MAO DANCE NYC, critically acclaimed American Modern-dance company of diverse dancers. Its multicultural/international programs have toured major cities of China, major dance venues in New York City, throughout Mexico, throughout the Continental United States, in Alaska, Oslo, Stockholm, Paris, Edinburgh, United Kingdom, Kosovo, and in Calabria, Italy. Michael Mao’s own bi-cultural, international background has informed his works with inclusive multiculturalism with a global outlook and his dancers have been hailed for their passionate, expressive, athletic and highly versatile dancing. 

Michael Mao Dance begins its 26th year with a program of major Mao dances, including 1994 DSCH, called "a stunning work to Shostakovich's String Quartet #8" following its 1994 debut, along with other works to music by Kurt Weill, and Taiko drumming. 

“Michael Mao’s choreography enters a refined domain of corporeal language, close to the refined subtlety of Alvin Nikolais or Martha Graham" - El Naciónal, Mexico DF
