Don Cossacks State Dance Company

Direct from Russia, the Don Cossacks State Dance Company is appearing at the Towngate Theatre as part of their first UK Tour.

This sensational, internationally acclaimed company of 40 dancers and musicians is widely acknowledged as Russia’s premiere Cossack Dance Troupe. The Don Cossacks present a dynamic production packed with energy, passion & excitement, all performed to a live orchestra. The dancers will amaze you with their incredible acrobatic feats, skilful dexterity and colourful costumes in this breathtaking dance spectacular!

“Sensational – Russia’s most explosive dance production in years”

First opened in 1989, the Towngate Theatre is owned by Basildon District Council and is run by the Council's Cultural Services section. After a period of partial closure the Towngate re-opened fully in summer 2006 as an important feature of Basildon Council's modern cultural strategy.

Although the Towngate Theatre was built as recently as the late 1980s, its main auditorium follows the traditional horse-shoe design seen in many theatres built during the Georgian period. However, it is possible to quickly remove and store the entire 232 stalls seats under the main stage, creating a massive 378 square metre flat floor area suitable for all sorts of occasions.

Work is continually underway to build up a show calendar which will include shows put together by Towngate Promotions, as well as popular, entertaining and occasionally, more cultural and controversial productions brought in from elsewhere. All chosen to appeal to as large a cross section of people as possible.
