Hazel Lam

Hazel Lam is a multi-disciplinary artist with an immense interest in collaborative work. Trained in dance (Manchester), contemporary circus (Sheffield, Turin and London) and music (Hong Kong), Hazel creates visually and conceptually compelling performances in theatre, film and outdoor work with artists employing different media. She is currently touring internationally with her full-length solo LIGHTHOUSE. Her research aims to develop a common language across these three artistic fields through harmonious yet contradictory amalgamations that aim to push the boundaries of what each of these fields can be. She devotes herself to conversations and projects that concern equal representation of artists from diverse backgrounds through discoursing with artists in the dance and theatre scene.

Hazel was one of the winners of The Great Belgian Dance Showcase (De Grote Belgische Dansvitrine) in 2018 and the recipient of Cambridge Junction’s Troop New Ideas Fund with her solo LIGHTHOUSE in 2018. Additionally, Hazel was a participant of BETA CIRCUS, a year-long EU programme that highlights a specific new trend in contemporary circus aesthetics: illusionism and new magic.
