The Place, Dance and performance centre in Duke's Road, London, England
The Place houses the London Contemporary Dance School and Robin Howard Dance Theatre within a restored Grade II listed Victorian building near Euston Station.
The building, constructed in 1888, served as a drill hall for the Artists' Rifles military unit until 1969 when the Contemporary Ballet Trust acquired it.
The Richard Alston Dance Company performed at The Place from 1994 to 2020, establishing it as a center for contemporary dance in London.
The facility includes multiple dance studios, performance spaces, and classrooms, offering professional training programs and public performances throughout the year.
In 2004, The Place introduced a choreography competition supported by Bloomberg, which became a major platform for emerging dance creators.
