由享譽國際的英國編舞家兼舞台導演 韋恩・麥葛萊格 (Wayne McGregor) 創作的《我的基因舞譜》,將在2020年 1月於西九文化區自由空間作亞洲首演。 作品靈感源自韋恩・麥葛萊格對自己的基 因組、以及人類DNA當中23對染色體排 列的演繹。勾畫自麥葛萊格一生對科學及 科技的迷戀,他專注地讓肢體化身成人生 檔案庫,以此探索自我、生命、寫作等 範圍,折射出可堪回首的過往及變幻莫測 的未來。

「在《我的基因舞譜》中,韋恩對科學與 科技研究的終身熱情,將他帶到一個非常 具個人特色的發現之旅。正因與領先全球 的基因科學家合作,作品本身對『身份』 這個概念進行了一次引人入勝的探索, 同時進一步証明了韋恩在藝術表演上的 視野及創新取向。」 —倫敦沙德勒之井劇院藝術總監及首席 執行官Alistair Spalding CBE 韋恩・麥葛萊格CBE出生於1970年,是 獲獎無數的編舞家兼舞台導演,他突破性 的創新表演方式徹底地為現代舞蹈重新 定義,同時亦令他享譽國際。

Premiering in Asia at Freespace in West Kowloon in January 2020, Autobiography is inspired by the sequencing of the world-renowned British choreographer and director Wayne McGregor’s own genome and the 23 pairs of chromosomes that contain the human DNA. Drawing from his life-long fascination with science and technology, McGregor focuses on the body as an archive, and explores aspects of self, life, writing, refracting both remembered pasts and speculative futures.

Since its debut at Sadler’s Wells in October 2017, Autobiography has won several awards including Best Contemporary Dance Performance from Danza & Danza Magazine Awards; and The Gross Family Prize 2018, awarded to McGregor and composer and producer Jlin (music) in recognition of their outstanding collaboration between dance and music.

“In Autobiography, Wayne’s life-long fascination with scientific and technological research takes him on a very personal journey of discovery. A collaboration with world-leading geneticists, the production is a fascinating exploration of the concept of identity and further proof of Wayne’s visionary and innovative approach to the art form.” - Alistair Spalding CBE, Artistic Director and Chief Executive,Sadler’s Wells

Born in 1970, Wayne McGregor CBE is a multi-award-winning British choreographer and director, internationally renowned for trailblazing innovations in performance that have radically redefined dance in the modern era.
