About
We moved into the old industrial unit in Ivy Arch Road on the 14th January 2005 once council approval had been granted for change of use. Vast outlay has created an ideal environment for rehearsals for entertainers.
The business idea is to provide high quality rehearsal rooms for music, theatrics and dancing in Worthing and the surrounding areas. Being ourselves involved with entertaining for many years we realised the need for practice space, which has sadly been lacking in Worthing for many years with people travelling to Brighton and the far reaches of Sussex to get this facility.
