DANNY YUNG<br />

Director<br />

Danny Yung is an experimental art pioneer, one<br />

of the founders and Co-Artistic Director of Zuni<br />

Icosahedron. In the past 40 years he has been<br />

deeply involved in multifarious fields of the arts—<br />

mainly theatre, cartoon, film and video, visual<br />

art and installation—and is widely regarded as<br />

one of the most influential artists in Hong Kong<br />

and its neighbouring regions. He is a keen<br />

advocate of experimental art and new art forms,<br />

and has been involved in over 100 theatrical<br />

productions as director, scriptwriter, producer<br />

and stage designer through the years. He has<br />

also contributed significantly to the provision of a<br />

platform for both acclaimed and budding artists to<br />

explore and practise theatre art in Hong Kong, as<br />

well as across Europe, Asia and the United States<br />

to high acclaim. In 2008, he was honoured by<br />

UNESCO’s International Theatre Institute with the<br />

Music Theatre NOW award for Tears of Barren<br />

Hill.
