The London Contemporary Dance Theatre was a contemporary dance company, based at The Place, which was founded by Robin Howard during the 1970s and based on the ideas of Merce Cunningham and Martha Graham.
It closed in 1994 and was succeeded by a number of companies, including the Richard Alston Dance Company, the Robin Howard Dance Theatre, and the Siobhan Davies Dance Company.
The school is still in operation and is now part of the Conservatoire for Dance and Drama.
