Are you ticklish? Do you know that fragile, teetering sensation existing somewhere between pleasure and irritation? Jasmin Vardinmon’s new work focuses on the borderline transitions and proximity of pleasurable sensations or emotions which in excess becomes painful.
Vardimon has formed a strong and identifiable choreographic voice. Her work is a tangible theatrical caging of violence, humour, and sexual passion through her acute human observance of physical behaviour and characters' interactions. This young Israeli’s recent achievements include receiving the prestigious Jerwood Choreography Award (2000).

Don't forget that the Traverse isn't responsible for the content of other folk's web sites (but imagine if we were...)

"Their daring grapples and jigsaw partnering shapes are gripping"
(The Independent )
"It's rare to stumble upon a young dance-maker whose work has the reach, skill and intelligence of Israeli-born Jasmin Vardimon. She's one of the most promising discoveries."
