About us

DanceEast is so much more than a dance class facilitator and theatre venue.

Artists and professionals are at the heart of our organisation and we are committed to supporting them in various ways; Associate Artist Scheme, Rural Retreats, CPD workshops, Advance Levels Classes, Choreographic Development Fund and much more.

DanceEast has been running a range of innovative community projects for over thirty years. We work with a range of partners on local, national and international projects and enjoy introducing people to dance for the first time as much as developing and refining skills in more experienced dancers.

Work with us

Work placements:

Each placement will include an insight into several departments within the organisation including Front of House, Technical, Marketing and Development and Creative teams. Successful placements will be set creative tasks and have the opportunity to speak to staff about careers in dance and the arts. Please note, this is an office based role and recommended to those who are interested in finding out and experiencing what it means to make dance happen!
