In a year when so many theaters and performing arts companies were forced to shutter due to the COVID-19 pandemic, audiences and artists in Taiwan were able to enjoy a relative degree of normality, and I felt ridiculously fortunate to not only be able to see shows, but see so many good ones.
While many productions exceeded expectations, I decided against doing a Top 10 dance list, choosing instead to focus on the development of choreographers and companies shown through their new works or revivals.
