Our community goes far beyond the Academy walls. We work with a diverse array of organisations to forge creative partnerships and deliver our world-class training to a broad and ever expanding community.

We have maintained strong links with the industry since our formation. Our partnerships enable us to exchange ideas, to develop best practice and collaborate with a wide range of theatre-makers.

We take pride in being a collaborative and creative place to work, and in the enthusiasm and dedication of our employees.

Our library is an important resource for our students with over 40,000 acquisitions, including more than 12,000 plays drawn globally from theatre history.

Our buildings combine our heritage with versatile, contemporary facilities to meet the demands of modern theatre training. A number of spaces are also available to hire for events.
