The Place Announces its 2025 Spring Season

The Place, London’s leading centre for dance performance and creation, is delighted to launch its spring 2025 season, with highlights including new work by the much-loved circus company Gandini Juggling, socially conscious dance theatre company Northern Rascals, Work Place artist Eli Lewis, Corali and their Youth Company Kick Up, the London premiere of Mariposa by DeNada Dance Company and an exciting Aerowaves double bill exploring magic tricks and illusion.

The season is complete by heartwarming family works for the February half term by Ascension company and Marlborough Productions.

“Our Spring season delights in how dance can play - you’ll find dance alongside juggling, magic and ventriloquism, as well as a celebration of the joy of dance for families at February half term. Internationally renowned artists Gandini and Jérôme Bel join artists who are new to The Place’s programme, and those who have developed their work in our studios, including Corali and Lea Tirabasso. We look forward to seeing you at The Place soon.”
