Stephen George Page AO is an Aboriginal Australian choreographer, film director and former dancer. He was artistic director of the Bangarra Dance Theatre, an Indigenous Australian dance company, from 1991 until 2022. During this time he choreographed or created 33 works for the company, as well as several other major works, including segments of the opening and closing ceremonies of the Sydney Olympic Games. He was artistic director of the 2004 Adelaide Festival of the Arts, and has also done work for theatre and film.

Stephen George Page was born in Brisbane in 1965. He was the tenth of 12 children, raised in the Brisbane suburb of Mt Gravatt./> Page is descended from the Nunukul people on his mother's side and the Munaldjali of the Yugambeh people from southeast Queensland, on his father's, but his parents lived in a time where they were not able to celebrate their Aboriginal identity. Page has described his father as a "jack of all trades" and an excellent craftsman.

Page attended the Cavendish Road State High School in Brisbane from 1994 to 1997, and felt fortunate to be able to do so, as all of his older sisters had to leave school at a young age to work and bring in income for the family. There he learnt music and some dance, although did not obtain a Higher School Certificate.

He first worked as a trainee law clerk at the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island legal service, and he considered going on to study law at university, but was attracted by a poster about an Indigenous dance college. He moved to Sydney when he was 16 and trained with the Aboriginal Islander Dance Theatre, which would later become the National Aboriginal Islander Skills Development Association (NAISDA). He graduated from NAISDA in 1983 after three years, gaining a certificate and diploma. In 1984, Page choreographed his first major work, Warumpi Warumpi, for a choreographic workshop at NAISDA.

In 1986 Page was offered work with Graeme Murphy's Sydney Dance Company, performing in After Venice, Wilderness, Nearly Beloved, Shining (1987), Poppy, Company of Wo/men and King Roger. In their 1987 season, Page danced in Sheherezade / Late Afternoon of a Faun / Rumours 1 / Afterworlds at the Sydney Opera House. He also toured to Greece, Italy, Japan, Hong Kong, and Korea with the company,

In 1988, during the bicentenary of Australia and the associated Indigenous activism, Page decided that he did not want to dance in a non-Indigenous company, so went back to NAISDA and became a teacher and choreographer. In that year, he toured with the NAISDA-associated Aboriginal Islander Dance Theatre (AIDT) to Germany and Finland, and he was artistic director of the end-of-year college show, Kayn Walu, in 1989, the year that Bangarra Dance Theatre was founded. The following year, Page co-choreographed Djunba Woman, presented by AIDT at Belvoir St Theatre in Sydney on 1 November 1990. Raymond Blanco was artistic director at that time, and Page's brother David played music for the production.

He did however do further work with Sydney Dance Company and Graeme Murphy, which he credits with teaching him choreography skills. In 1991 he choreographed Trackers of Oxyrhyncus, as well as Mooggrah for the company's season, The Shakespeare Dances.

Also in 1991, he choreographed a sextet for Opera Australia's Marriage of Figaro.
