ENRICO D. WEY
split his formative years equally in Arizona and in Taiwan. After a strenuous academic education in Taiwanese public schools, Enrico went to Sarah Lawrence College, receiving a Bachelor’s Degree in 2004.
Upon graduation, Enrico traveled to South Africa and worked on “Tall Horse” with the Handspring Puppet Company making him the only American company member in the company’s 25 year history. “Tall Horse” toured internationally in 2005, stopping in parts of South Africa, the Theatre Der Welt Festival in Germany, the Brooklyn Academy of Music, and the Kennedy Center.
Currently residing in New York City, Enrico has puppeteered for Michael Bodel at Here Arts Center, The Octopus Ensemble and for Repertorio Espanol’s Luces Di Bohemia. He is now dancing for Laura Manzella and Movement Research Artist-in-Residence, Milka Djordjevich.
He has collaborated with the lab on all projects thus far in one capacity or another.
At this moment, he is fascinated by ideas of “live animation” and is mildly obsessed with decomposition and static trapeze. He also likes cooking. A lot.
