About

The dance drama Pinocchio is a brand new adaption of Colloid's classic fairy tale. It is performed by Jasmin Vardimon's multi-talented dancers. The theatrical dance work brings 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 characterization, innovative technologies, text, and dance to examine the idea of what it means to be human. Producing a well-known title comes with a certain responsibility to those who know and love Pinocchio but Jasmin Vardimon company hope that the unique treatment of this familiar story will introduce a whole new audience not only to their work but to the medium of dance. For those who follow Vardimon's work, Pinocchio offers the same thought-provoking themes, quirky characterizations, and breath-taking physicality as their other productions, but this narrative is the perfect opportunity to bring along friends and family.
