The Place has been on the site since 1969, when the Contemporary Ballet Trust took over the premises. To this day the Place is a theater where contemporary ballet is performed.


History

The building was designed by R.W Edis and built by Charles Kynoch and Company of Clapham as a drill hall for the the 20th Middlesex (Artists) Volunteer Rifle Corps between 1888-89.

The Place was founded by a man named Robin Howard. Howard, according to an article on The Place website, wanted to establish a "distinctively British form of contemporary dance'" that would be firmly rooted in Kings Cross that would also allow international influences.[2] The Place attracted dancers and choreographers from around the world both as students and performers. In the 1970s, the Contemporary Ballet Trust started the London Contemporary Dance School and the London Contemporary Dance Theatre (now succeed by the Richard Alston Dance Company) both were formed and are housed at The Place. From 1999 to 2008, dance studios were also built.

Today, The Place is the home of the London Contemporary Dance School where students and teachers come from around the world.[2] The school provides both undergraduate and postgraduate training, as well as a research program in contemporary dance. [2]
