Directed and Choreographed by Jasmin Vardimon
LEADING INTERNATIONAL DANCE COMPANY’S SPECTACULAR VERSION OF A CHILDREN’S CLASSIC
‘A conscience is that still small voice that people won’t listen to.’ ― Carlo Collodi
This Autumn, award winning choreographer Jasmin Vardimon returns with her adaptation of the classic fairy tale, Pinocchio. Based on the original book by Collodi and performed by Jasmin Vardimon’s multi-talented dancers, Pinocchio will bring to life the famous marionette as he embarks on a fantastic journey to become a human boy.
Showcasing Vardimon’s uniquely theatrical choreographic and directorial style, Pinocchio combines physical theatre, quirky characterisation, innovative technologies, text and dance to examine the idea of what it means to be human. With insightful humour, engaging drama and an acute observation of behaviour, this show will take audiences on a wonderful journey of discovery through this timeless and beloved fable.
‘Simple yet elaborate, stark but magical, Pinocchio is a pretty impressive achievement’
The Times
‘Joyous new levels of dance invention. Beguiling’
