Jeremy Wade is an American dancer/choreographer based in Berlin. He graduated from the School For New Dance Development, Amsterdam in the year 2000. Wade premiered his first evening length work titled Glory at Dance Theater Workshop, New York City in February of 2006, for which he received a New York Bessie Award. Since then Wade has been living in Berlin, working closely with the Hebbel Theater and Dramaturge Eike Wittrock. His most recent performance works include …and pulled out their hair (2007), Throwing Rainbows Up (2008), I Offer My Self To Thee (2009), There Is No End To More (2010). In 2011 Wade embarked on a six month research phase titled Identity and Transgression from which he created Fountain a new solo and a new trio titled To the Mountain.
Besides the creation of performances and a rigorous teaching practice Wade has always been drawn to the curation, production and subsequent hosting of ecstatic events. This interest in curation evolved from his experience as a vibrant host of parties and Night Clubs in New York City during the mid 90’s to becoming a founding member in 2003 of Chez Bushwick a Live/Work loft for the performing arts in industrial Bushwick, Brooklyn. He curated the Politics of Ecstasy-Festival in January of 2009 at the Hebbel am Ufer together with Meg Stuart, Eike Wittrock, and Brendan Dougherty. He also curated a smash hit queer performance series at Basso, Berlin titled Creature Feature.
