History

Founded by three visionary women – Rose Bruford, Edith Scorer and Mary Henniker-Heaton – the institution emerged from a shared sense of adventure and a daring ambition to redefine the boundaries of arts education. Originally named The Rose Bruford Training College of Speech and Drama, the institution was founded with a unique purpose: to train actors who could teach and teachers who could act.
