## Biography

Rainer Behr is a German dancer and choreographer. Born in Neustadt an der Waldnaab in 1964, he trained as a gymnastics teacher before studying dance at the Folkwang University of the Arts. From 1990 to 1995 he performed with the Folkwang Tanzstudio in Essen and as a guest dancer with Tanztheater Wuppertal Pina Bausch. In 1995 Pina Bausch invited him to join the ensemble as a permanent member.

Behr has performed in numerous works by Pina Bausch. He appeared as a dancer in Pedro Almodóvar's *Talk to Her* (2002) and as Self in the documentary *Pina* (2011) directed by Wim Wenders. He has also choreographed works since 1989, including pieces for the Folkwang Tanzstudio and, from 2020, for Tanztheater Wuppertal, such as the full-length *Schlafende Frau* (2021).
