Luther Wilson is a Maori-Australian dancer and performing artist currently based in Australia, with a practice developed from a background in theatre, contemporary dance, breakdance and circus.

Beginning his interest in dance, theatre, and performance in Garamilla/Darwin, and later basing himself in Boorloo/Perth, he has performed in the works of numerous prominent choreographers including Cass Mortimer Eipper, Didier Theron, Graeme Watson, Raewyn Hill, Kimberley Parkin, Shaun Johnston, Crystal Pite, Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui, and Boris Charmatz. Luther has performed as a dancer with Co3 Contemporary Dance in works including Raewyn Hill’s Archives of Humanity in 2021 and Kimberley Parkin’s Killjoy in 2023’s IN:HOUSE season. Through STRUT Dance he has performed with internationally acclaimed choreographers in Crystal Pite’s Ten Duets on a Theme of Rescue in 2023, Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui’s Manifest in 2025, and in Boris Charmatz’s CERCLES in 2026. In 2025 he also performed in Shaun Jonhston’s The Scramble at the Blue Room Theatre, for which he won the Performing Arts WA Award for Outstanding Performer. He has also worked and performed prominently in theatre, including in Brown’s Mart Theatre’s 2022 production of The Messenger, and in Tania Liemen’s POD in the 2024 and 2025 Darwin Festival.

Luther’s practice continues to develop along lines of interest in tempering impulse, interrogating delineations of practice, and the coalescing of experience, knowledge, and personhood into embodied performance.
