Opened in 1998, the Jerwood Space is now widely regarded as one of the best rehearsal spaces for theatre and dance in the country. It is a major initiative of the Jerwood Foundation providing excellent facilities for "the work of art". Young dance and theatre companies can develop their work at a greatly reduced cost, while working alongside established professional companies who pay established professional companies who pay competitive rates.
A beautifully refurbished Victorian school (Paxton Locher Architects) also offers a contemporary art gallery, cafe and striking glazed courtyard (Satellite Architects); these are all open to the public and available for events.
