The DanceHouse
JERWOOD DANCEHOUSE – DANCEEAST’S HOME
In 2000 it became clear that DanceEast needed an identifiable base it could call its own, and so the vision for the Jerwood DanceHouse was born.
Ipswich has always been DanceEast’s home. Its location is ideal, served with good transportation links and undergoing major regeneration. Its short travel distance to London also makes the DanceHouse an accessible venue to artists based in the capital.
The Jerwood DanceHouse officially opened its doors to the public for classes and performances in October 2009.
It’s our vision for the entire community to have ownership of this facility, and to feel that the Jerwood DanceHouse is theirs.
