For over 25 years Chisenhale Dance Space has been a seedbed for research and development in movement arts and independent dance. Based in Bow, East London, we are a unique artist-driven organisation that offers project support for body-based work of all kinds, by diverse artists from all communities, investigating new areas in their own practice.

Welcome to our exciting new programme with two residencies - Interplay and Interface - and Space Bursary platforms.
