Joli Vyann’s first major indoor production fuses the energy of hand to hand acrobatics and Cyr wheel with graceful contemporary dance to create a captivating style of physical performance. Collaborating with French dance circus choreographer and musical composer, Florence Caillon, Stateless explores the topical subject of immigration, humanity and tolerance, taking audiences on an emotional journey into the lives and fate of people forced to leave their country of birth.

The soundtrack to Stateless includes spoken word exerts of real life interviews with refugees, which Joli Vyann have met and talked to about their experiences of displacement, and being torn away from their homes by political circumstances.
