WHAT is Resolution?

Resolution is The Place’s annual festival of new choreography and performance works by emerging artists.
Resolution exists to support and celebrate work by UK emerging artists. Every year we welcome over 70 UK-based artists to create original work for one of the most exciting and established London performance festivals.
Artists learn from industry professionals through supportive and practical workshops and present their work at The Place theatre to an audience of up to 288, including industry critics.
We invite choreographers and companies to propose exciting ideas for new work that they really believe in.
Resolution nights in the theatre are triple bills featuring three different companies' shows.
