Platform A.D. was created in August 2010 by Holly Noble, Artistic Director of A.D. Dance Company, Associate Dance Artist with English National Ballet and Artistic Director of English National Ballet's youth company. The platform aims to help and provide emerging dance companies, of all genres, the opportunity to showcase their work in the beautiful surroundings of The Actors Church in Covent Garden as well as providing a regular platform for dancers and choreographers to participate in. Along with offering choreographers a unique opportunity we also hope that the platform gives people of all ages and backgrounds the opportunity to come and explore and be involved with exciting new and innovative dance.
