Engaged in a lot of practice and theory around semiotics, rituals, post-medium practices, site-specificity, new choreographic systems, physical dramaturgy, trans-disciplinarity and new hybrid forms, Adham creates dance performances, concerts, installations, publications, lectures, workshops, and what’s in between. He has produced a large body of work through “Adham Hafez Company” which has been presented in Egypt, the Middle East and Europe. He received his education in Western Classical Music, Opera Singing, Contemporary Dance, Literature and Critical Theory at the Cairo Opera House, The Faculty of Musical Education in Helwan University, The Faculty of Arts at Ain Shams University and the Voice Studio of Professor Dr.Neveen Allouba.

Adham Hafez is the founder and program director of HaRaKa, the first movement research project in Egypt. He is also the artistic director for the “TransDance” festival and the founder of “Cairography”, the first publication in Egypt dedicated to critical writing on choreography and performance. Adham is invited as a consultant for different cultural festivals and arts institutions, nationally and internationally on a regular basis.
