Born 1985 in Trondheim, based in Oslo.

Magnus Myhr has worked as a dancer and a performer/actor since 2007. He holds a BA in modern and contemporary dance from Oslo National Academy of the Arts - KHiO. His own work is rooted in his personal experiences, and he is especially interested in the poetic and perceptible powers of the body. He wants to make performances inviting his audience in, ultimately trying to open up their understanding of differentness and gender. Amongst other things, he has produced and choreographed the solo performances JEG SATT PÅ EN STEIN OG SÅ UTOVER «HAVET» / I SAT ON A ROCK AND LOOKED OUT AT THE «OCEAN» (2014), and I DET FJERNE, TROJA / IN THE DISTANCE, TROY (2018) at Rosendal Teater, Black Box teater, RAS – regional arena for contemporary dance and at BIT Teatergarasjen. His work has also been showcased at Multiplié dance festival, Bodø Biennale, Barents dance festival and at Gøteborg dance and theatre festival. I SAT ON A ROCK... received the Trondheim prize 2014 for performing arts production of the year at the annual NATT&DAG awards.
