Artiste: Jasmin Vardimon Company

A revisiting of Vardimon’s past work in a collage of important ideas from her existing repertoire, stirred in with new choreography, design and sound.

Students from the Jasmin Vardimon Company's development programme JV2 impress in the company's purpose-built premises in Ashford.

If you are like me and have ever wondered how a crime story would be transposed into dance, Jasmin Vardimon’s Justitia is the show for you. Recipient of the 2013 International Theatre Institute Award for Excellence in Dance, Vardimon, who was raised on an Israeli kibbutz, is one of the leading force in British dance theatre.

In what way would you set the stage for an exploration of freedom? Jasmin Vardimon’s vision adorns the Sadler’s Wells stage with large, spinning set pieces dripping with duct tube and green vines of industrial plastic. A camouflaged blanket made of rustling synthetic leaves makes sporadic entrances and exits to the scene.
