About

The Space is a performing arts and community centre based in a converted church on the Isle of Dogs, East London.  Run by St Paul’s Arts Trust we’re committed to providing a broad range of events and opportunities for new performers of all kinds.  We believe in giving people space:-

 

THE SPACE TO ENJOY

 

We programme a year-round, exciting mixture of theatre, music, comedy and dance events.  Our performances are usually scheduled on Tuesday – Sunday evenings with a fortnightly classical music recital – A Little Lunch Music on Wednesday afternoons.  With our home-grown theatre productions and approximately 200 events per year, there’s always something to look forward to.

 

THE SPACE TO EXPLORE

 

SpaceWorks, our in-house theatre company, provides regular weekly workshops in performance for 7-11 year olds, 12-16 year olds and adults.  We also provide training in a wide range of technical theatre and arts administration skills.  Working with experienced professionals and absolute beginners, whether you’re more comfortable on stage or off, there are opportunities for everyone to get involved.

 

THE SPACE TO BE

 

The Space is a warm, friendly, welcoming place.  Whether you’re coming to an event or a workshop or simply to enjoy Hubbub, our café/bar, we’re always pleased to see you.
