Performance Programme

We are very excited to announce that Forefront Dance has commissioned Jasmin Vardimon Dance Company to create their first piece of repertoire.

Renowned for her uniquely theatrical choreographic and directorial style combining physical theatre, quirky characterisation, innovative technologies, text and dance, Jasmin Vardimon accentuates her work with an acute observation of human behaviour. With sharp instincts and provocative daring, she has developed an individual choreographic voice, distinguished by her beautifully detailed movement, insightful humour and engaging drama. The company’s works are widely accessible through their exposure of human experience, social relevance, high quality, passion, skill and commitment.

Assistant Director Charlie Marie-Coldron has also created two works for company members that investigate urban-contemporary dance fusion.

Uniqueness: An urban-contemporary fusion, generating a performance of the inner you, developing movement and imagery like no other. Step inside a conscious state you choose. Step inside as a non-naturalistic creature that moves just as uniquely as you. Express that inner you. Step out, move, see as one. Step in. A mind of chaos, a visual confusion.

Avant-Garde Vogue: A dramatic, abstract choreography, intertwining commercial model-like poses with angular, linear and rigid movement. An illusionary piece from an illusionary form. An artistic flamboyance; watch as contemporary dance walks the runway, strikes a pose and Vogue!
