Details

Jasmin Vardimon Company formed JV2 with the mission to develop, encourage and cultivate young talent. The only UK based dance company to offer a full-time one-year professional development certificate, JVC provides participants with a unique opportunity to train as versatile and multi-disciplinary performers and to learn the technical foundations of dance theatre as well as the specific approach developed by Jasmin Vardimon. Including the touring of new repertoire developed specifically for the group, participants also learn how to educate through Jasmin Vardimon Company methods, building confidence as dance educators for future generations. The JVC Certificate aims to develop performers who will be selected to enter the Jasmin Vardimon Company, go forward to lead educational work under the JVC umbrella, or continue as successful performers in their chosen path. In this triple bill for 2014, the world premiere of JVC dancer David Lloyd's Purgatory: Nothing 2 Say follows a woman's journey through purgatory; Vohlfs co-choreographed by former JVC dancers Paul Blackman and Christine Gouzelis takes an atmospheric view upon the order of a pack as they fight the uncontrollable nature to break free; and Jasmin Vardimon's Tomorrow transforms selected moments from her repertoire of work into a new experience.
