Shu Qiao (舒巧 b. 1933) is one of China's most important choreographers of Chinese classical dance and Chinese dance drama. Originally from Zhejiang, Shu joined the Xin'an Traveling Troupe (新安旅行团) in 1944 and moved to Shanghai with the Troupe in 1949. In 1951-52 Shu studied with renowned Korean dancer Choi Seunghee (Sai Shōki/Ch'oe, Sŭng-hŭi/최승희/崔承喜, 1911-1969) at the Central Academy of Drama, and in 1986-1994 she was guest choreographer at the Hong Kong Dance Company. Apart from this, Shu spent the majority of her career as a dancer, choreographer, and leader at the Shanghai Opera and Dance Drama Theater. In 1954, she was part of a tour of Chinese performers to India, Indonesia, and Burma. In 1959, she starred as Zhou Xiuying in the dance drama and film Dagger Society (小刀会), and in 1962, she played the Chang'e in the dance drama Houyi yu Chang'e.
