This state-of-the-art space includes seven full-size dance studios, a studio theatre (seating 193) with a full lighting rig and sound desk to be used for both RAD and community partner performances, two cafes, a specialist dance library and a large welcoming reception space that will be used to host exhibitions and events.

Owing to its end use as a performance theatre, we carefully designed acoustic treatments such as attenuators and silencers for the chillers and AHU’s. There are extensive ELV systems installations which required specific detailed planning during the design and commissioning phases. Update Group were appointed to install the entire building services package on a Design & Build contract.
