A Triple Bill by Vinicius Salles, Victoria Fox Markiewicz & Jasmin Vardimon MBE

Talented, young, international dancers from JV2 will premiere exciting new works by long-standing Jasmin Vardimon Company associates and choreographers Vinicius Salles and Victoria Fox Markiewicz. The triple bill culminates with Tomorrow choreographed by multi-award-winning Jasmin Vardimon MBE.

Tomorrow, first created in 2013 as one of JV2’s signature works – choreographed by multi-award-winning, Jasmin Vardimon – celebrates favourite moments from Park, Justitia, 7734 and Yesterday, and has been transformed into a vibrant and powerful explosion of exceptional talent especially for JV2.

Unchartered Waters Are Navigable by Little Paper Boats by Vinicius Salles

Written and directed by Vinicius Salles, Uncharted Waters Are Navigable by Little Paper Boats is an original physical theatre performance crafted to captivate the entire family. This story explores how we navigate life’s uncertainties through the journey of a little paper boat adrift on uncharted seas. As it embarks on a fantastical adventure, the boat discovers resilience amidst the challenges of a world increasingly shaped by environmental change. Infused with insightful humour, the performance blends physical theatre, quirky characterizations, evocative text, and dance to bring this tale to life. Audiences are invited on a poetic journey that challenges perceptions and reflects on how children grow up in a world marked by the unpredictable impacts of climate change.

underdog by Victoria Fox Markiewicz

/ʌn.də.dɒɡ/ noun

Highly physical and unapologetic, underdog simmers with tension and unrest. Performed with a full bodied urgency and gutsy power, each performer draws upon their own story yet become powerfully charged as a collective, creating a fragile world of togetherness driven forward by a soundtrack of cinematic beats and a relentless hope for the human spirit.
