Jasmin Vardimon Company
Founded in 1998, Jasmin Vardimon Company has been a leading force in British and international dance theatre for over 25 years.
Jasmin Vardimon’s work is renowned for its powerful fusion of dance, theatre, physicality, characterisation, text and visual research, creating a highly distinctive choreographic and theatrical language.
Jasmin Vardimon has been an Associate Artist at Sadler’s Wells since 2006, and the company has established an international reputation through its productions, touring and commitment to professional development and dance education.
