Days later, a tragedy occurs. Jane is accused of witchcraft - and Ann leads the charge.

Justitia

Synopsis:
A cutting edge piece of physical dance theatre, Justitia delves into the depths of the justice system, unraveling the multiple truths concealed behind a crime story. In a filmic replay of events, staged on a revolving set, the audience witnesses the action from different perspectives  at the crime scene, in the court house, inside a group therapy room, revealing new realities as a series of secrets unfold. Punctuated with provocative and insightful humour, Justitia treats us to Vardimon's unique brand of highly acute physical theatre. Fiercely athletic and beautifully detailed, this production delivers a generous mix of energetic dance, a sharp script and an exhilarating soundtrack.

Miss Julie

Synopsis:
Miss Julie's her usual self tonight. . . a lunatic she is!' Gossip and rumour spiral around aristocrat Miss Julie. Particularly regarding her attitude towards, and treatment of, men. Now she has spent a wild Midsummer Night's Eve waltzing with her servants in a barn, and paying particular attention to her father's handsome valet, Jean. Enflamed by passion and careless of her reputation, Miss Julie follows Jean home to the court kitchen and demands he return to the party to dance with her again. But how powerful is Miss Julie's charged command when, despite her high birth, she is a woman and he is a man? Written in 1888 Strindberg's masterful exploration of sex, class and power asks who in the battle of the sexes is really the servant, and who the master.

Stars Over Kabul

Synopsis:
"My inspiration for the piece came from Paul Roseby. He had seen an article about a woman called Razia, who was the first female crane driver in Afghanistan. She loved her job under the Soviets but when the Taliban came in they took her position away and she was forced to become a cleaner. the story then became about the daughter of Razia and how it feels to grow up in modern day Afghanistan. the Taliban have technically lost power but the war has left much emotional and physical debris behind. Fused with this is the fever that the show Afghan Star became. This is an ongoing talent show  its genesis a few years ago united the country with Afghanistani passion for it. A third of the population watched it on TV." - Rebecca Lenkiewicz
