About this space

Studio 1 is a large, flexible dance studio that can also shift into a small, intimate theatre setup when needed. It’s open and easy to work with, whether you’re rehearsing, teaching, or putting on a showing.

The space has a professional Le Mark dance floor, full-length mirrors, and high ceilings, giving dancers and performers the room and surface they need to work safely. It’s practical, well set up, and suited to a range of movement-based activities.

As a performance space, Studio 1 can be configured with audience seating to create a close, immersive theatre experience, perfect for sharings, scratch nights, showings, auditions and small-scale performances. The space is equipped with an overhead Bose sound system and adaptable lighting, allowing for flexible use across a wide range of creative and community activities.
