"I personally sense dance and physical theater as a method and need of expression, always looking for new forms of movement and exploring new choreographic concepts, collaborating with other artists to find the poetry that lies in ourselves. To explain stories, a point of view or simply to find the beauty of emotions; and reflect on ourselves with the movement of the soul through the human body as an expression. Probably the most ancestral art of expression."

I was trained at the Escola de Dansa i Arts Escèniques Artis in Reus, Escuela de Danza María de Ávila in Zaragoza, and graduated at the Hamburg Ballet School in Hamburg.

In 2011 I started my professional artistic career, working with the Hamburg Ballet as a soloist dancer while performing in many other festivals, galas and artistic projects abroad. Meanwhile I developed my own choreographic practice.

At this moment Marc Jubete is a freelance artistic director, choreographer and dancer.

Marc Jubete Bascompte

Born in Reus, Spain. December 25th, 1989

Artistic director, Choreographer and dancer

I started my choreographic research as a member of the Hamburg Ballett John Neumeier, showing my works in the Opera Stabile within of the Junge Choreografen evenings, in a small and intimate black box. Meanwhile the Bundesjugendballett -National youth company of Germany-, had been commissioning me dance pieces and taking them as part of their usual repertoire. At that time, I also performed my work at Origen Festival Cultural.

After, in 2016, I received the Erik Bruhn Prize, in Toronto (Canada), for the best choreography.

Then, in 2019, the director of the Hamburg Ballett, John Neumeier, invited me to choreograph a full length for the whole Hamburg Ballett company, to be performed in the Staatsoper Hamburg.

Since then, I have choreographed for many established dance and theater companies, festivals, private artists and theaters in many different countries, which allowed me to inspire myself by different cultures and visions to be portrayed in contemporary choreography.
