Ideally located in the heart of the west end with unbeatable transport links, the Dominion’s event spaces are also ideal rehearsal rooms. The Studio was purpose built as a studio and dance space in 2008 and is the main attraction for rehearsals and auditions. The Studio is supported by our other spaces including the Gallery and Chaplin Room which are ideal for non-dance rehearsals. The Boardroom – our premium meeting space – is also available at a preferential rate to our rehearsal clients and is ideal for read-throughs and production meetings for up to 28 people. Specifications for all our Events Spaces are available here.
