Hello All!

Chisenhale Dance Space is having a lovely little Festival this March…we have called it TV Dinners because it is a celebration of Dance and Film accompanied at each screening event by some lovely locally sourced food. There is something for everyone: families, students, artists and those who are just a bit curious to see what goes on behind our famous purple doors...

We would love to see you there, there is more information below about whats on each night and how to book!

Lots of Love
