Ring Yuqi Yang

Ring Yuqi Yang is a classically-trained actor, performer, theatre educator, clown, filmmaker, and multidisciplinary artist. From Guiyang & Beijing, China, currently based in New York, they love really spicy food and chaos. Their work explores the intricacies of movement, gestural languages, and the metamorphosis of the human body, with introspective narratives on queerness and the female body. As an immigrant, Ring navigates the intersectionality between personal experiences and the surveillance state, examining the complexities of identity and belonging.

Performance credits include NY: Part of [ ] (accent sisters), Guerrilla Theatre, Will you set the table if I asked you to? (The Brick), Waves of Wonder (Emit Theatre), Cabin (University Settlement/Chuang Stage); DC: Much Ado About Nothing (Shakespeare Theatre Company), Julius Caesar, Cherry Orchard (The Academy at STC).

“Wow!!! I am overjoyed to be a part of this talented cohort with the lovely community of The Performance Project & University Settlement. I’m super excited to jump into the ruckus, experiment, fail, and hopefully create something in this coming year together. “Yes, yes, we’re magicians.”
