Talking dance

The homeless plight of Irish dance companies will come under the spotlight on Sunday, February 28th, when they'll be meeting to discuss the prospect of a new dance centre. A permanent base and studio space have long been promised and Dublin Corporation - in conjunction with the Arts Council, which is contributing £1 million - is looking for a suitable premises. The meeting, open to all interested parties, will take place in the Dublin Writers' Museum. Further information from: Karen Hennessy, Association of Professional Dancers in Ireland, tel: 01-8730288
