The Joyce SoHo Experience

At Joyce SoHo, a three-story former firehouse in New York's SoHo district, you'll discover an intimate venue of just 74 seats—one that brings you exceptionally close to every performance.

Joyce SoHo's three beautiful studios are exclusively available to independent choreographers and non-profit dance companies for rehearsals and performances at highly subsidized rates. This venue offers a truly unique opportunity for artists to develop their work and for audiences to experience emerging artists.



Modern dance began in the early 20th century as a rebellion against the formal nature of classical academic ballet and the populist nature of show dancing.
