}}Rose Bruford College of Theatre & Performance (formerly the Rose Bruford Training College of Speech and Drama) is a drama school in the south London suburb of Sidcup. The college has degree programmes in acting, actor musicianship, theatre arts, and various disciplines of stagecraft.[2]

Rose Bruford College is accredited by Drama UK.[3][4] The college's undergraduate and postgraduate qualifications and programmes were validated by the University of Manchester,[7][5] prior to the college gaining its own taught degree awarding powers in 2017.

Students who graduated in summer 2017 received Manchester degrees, while students entering from September 2017 will be awarded Rose Bruford College degrees. Students already enrolled but not graduated by 2017 will be offered the option of receiving either Rose Bruford or Manchester degrees.[6]

In December 2017 Clarie Middleton was appointed as the Principal and Chief Executive, becoming the second female Principal of the college.

In 2018, Bruford graduate Gary Oldman won an Academy Award for Best Actor for his portrayal of Winston Churchill in the film Darkest Hour.

History

The Rose Bruford Training College of Speech and Drama was established in 1950 by teacher Rose Elizabeth Bruford, with the help of poet laureate John Masefield, Laurence Olivier, and Peggy Ashcroft, who formed part of the Board of Governors. Rose Bruford "pioneered the first acting degree in 1976."[7]

Initially, classes were held in Lamorbey House, an 18th-century, Grade II listed manor house in the Lamorbey district of Sidcup. Sidcup is a suburb in the southeast of Greater London.[8][9]

The campus has since been expanded; construction of several new buildings was completed in 2002.[8] For some time, there was also a campus situated in Deptford, near Greenwich in South East London, which was closed when the college incorporated all of its courses on the Sidcup campus.{{Citation needed|date=May 2008}} Among these are four venues for student productions: the 300-seat theatre in the round Rose Theatre; the more intimate Barn Theatre; and two "black box" studio spaces. Third-year undergraduate students present their shows in off-campus London venues, such as the Unicorn Theatre and the Leicester Square Theatre.{{Citation needed|date=May 2008}}.

Rose Bruford College was the filming location of the television drama Nearly Famous (2007).{{Citation needed|date=May 2008}}

Rose Bruford

{{unreferenced section|date=February 2015}}

Bruford was born on 22 June 1904. She was educated at Kilburn High School, and later at Bath High School — where on one occasion a verse recital was given by Elsie Fogerty, the founder and Principal of the Central School of Speech and Drama. Bruford resolved to study drama at the Central School.

While still a student, she took part in the Oxford Recitations of Spoken Verse, begun in 1923 by John Masefield. Here she met several poets, including W. H. Auden, Gordon Bottomley, Richard Church, Walter de la Mare, T. S. Eliot, Christopher Hassall, and John Drinkwater. W. B. Yeats encouraged her to speak some of his poems to the accompaniment of a small harp, and she made this part of her recitals. She graduated in 1928 with top honours for her verse-speaking. John Masefield became her champion and guide for the rest of her life.

After graduating from the Central School, Bruford followed her parents' wishes never to work in the theatre. Instead, she became a visiting teacher of speech and drama. Between 1925-49 she taught regularly at 43 different schools. In 1941 she was appointed to the staff of the Royal Academy of Music where, starting with seven students, she built the drama course to 70 students. The Ministry of Education certified the course as a teacher-training programme. During this period, she spent three days per week at the Royal Academy of Music, and two teaching mime at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art.

In 1948 her first book, Speech and Drama, was published and was well-received. Meanwhile, she wanted better conditions and premises for her course at the Royal Academy of Music, but some of her views conflicted with those of the principal. She resigned; although she had little money, she began preparing to found her own school. The Kent Education Committee offered to rent her the mansion in Lamorbey Park for £5 per year. Bruford and other college staff established a training programme. Grants helped sustain the college in its early years, and it eventually became profitable.
