JV2 Kicks off its second year

Following the success of the pilot year of JV2: Jasmin Vardimon Professional Development Certificate, its successful UK tour in March – April 2013 and the graduation of 10 students (5 Merits, 5 Distinctions) we are now preparing for the course to go into its second year.

Over the 4 auditions held for 2013-14 entry, 121 people auditioned and 10 final places have been offered. Students for October will be an all female cast from 8 different countries (Greece, Latvia, England, Italy, Croatia, Ireland, Germany, France), once again demonstrating the internationality of the Jasmin Vardimon Company.

Developments for the JV2: Professional Development Certificate for this year will see guest lecturers returning to work with the students to provide specialist workshops and training and also Geoff Coleman working with the group for 2 intensive weeks. Jasmin Vardimon Company dancers both past and present have also been confirmed as choreographers for the 2014.

Programming for the 2014 Tour is beginning to take shape with 5 venues already confirmed and 4 internships offered to graduates from Wimbledon College of Art as Costume Designers for the Tour.
