The Dance Complex enables the creation, study, and performance of dance. They sustain artists, audiences, and the community through programs that connect movement and ideas. They celebrate the wonder and curiosity of dance for all.
The Dance Complex is a 30+ year old central hub of dance- locally, with connections to the New England region and in dialogue with the inter/national dance field. The studio, an 1884-circa Odd Fellow’s Hall in the heart of Central Square, Cambridge, is home to a diverse range of movers and dancers. This unique arts center hosts professional, pre-professional, and recreational movers. All are able to find a variety of movement and dance classes to take their next step. All can access affordable studio space, and participate in programs to help strengthen their choreographic, performance, and production skills. Those who dance, teach and create within the studios receive valued space in a supportive environment for affordable rental rates.
Their theatre and studios offer over 100 performances and shows each year, and and they invite all to celebrate with them in seasonal festivals that bring study, creation and performance together. Local artists perform alongside national guest artists in two theatre spaces.
Cambridge traditionally attracts all kinds of people from all corners of the world, and this is reflected in the artists, their classes and performances at The Dance Complex.
