Rohan Dhupar

Choreographer Director Movement Director Performance-Maker EDI Strategy

Rohan Dhupar (he/him) is a queer Indo-Canadian theatre and dance artist based in London, working between and at the intersections of theatre, musical theatre and contemporary dance. He has a passion for re-imagining classic and canonised works for contemporary relevance, and for developing new work where he particularly advocates for the integration of dance and movement throughout the developmental process of new musical theatre. He enjoys working collaboratively and draws on a range of skillsets such as devising, physical theatre, music and more. His practice is underlined by elements of community arts, EDI, access and intimacy practices in an active and ongoing pursuit to articulate and facilitate anti-oppressive rehearsal environments.
