subsidized school of acting in Bloomsbury,
London.
The oldest school of drama in England,
it set the pattern for subsequent schools of acting.
It was established in 1904 by actor-
manager Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree (
Tree, Sir Herbert Beerbohm),
who soon moved it from Haymarket to its present location on Gower Street and set up a presiding council of other leading actors and producers.
Principal of the academy from 1909 until 1955 was Sir Kenneth Barnes,
who assured its success.
A royal charter was granted in 1920,
and from 1924 the Royal Academy received an annual government grant.
The school'
s Vanbrugh Theatre (
1954)
replaced an earlier structure that was destroyed during World War II.
In the late 1990s the theatre was razed,
and a new,
slightly larger building was erected in its place.
