Live at the Roundhouse is a live concert video by American dark cabaret duo The Dresden Dolls.

On November 3 and 4, 2006, The Dresden Dolls performed at London's recently restored Roundhouse venue. The shows (and resulting DVD) featured a large number of artistic performers, circus acts, gymnasts, and cabaret dancers, both as support acts and participating alongside the band during their set. The set draws from both of their studio albums, previously unreleased songs and covers.
