An ambitious programme to create a step change in how the UK showcases dance and extends and strengthens tours for artists and companies.
Through August we’re making our theatre and studios at Pavilion Dance Covid Secure and doing technical maintenance.

Staff will mainly continue to work remotely.

Throughout the month we have programmes of digital and live dance including :
Closing our building and stopping live activity has prevented us earning income and we really need your support. Two ways to support us are by using the donate button on our website or you can sign up to Give As You Live – where every time you shop we’ll receive a donation at no cost to you – virtuous purchasing!
Have a great summer.
