Associated Studios is a drama school in London, offering courses in Acting, Musical Theatre, Opera and Commercial/Popular Music.
Associated Studios were founded by Leontine Hass in 2007, then based at the Royal Academy of Music, in order to address a lack of top-level ongoing professional development and training for performers. In addition to regular classes and masterclasses in acting, singing and dance with eminent leading professional practitioners, including Musical Directors, Director, Choreographers, Writers, Composers, Casting Directors and leading artists, Associated Studios also runs Professional Development Workshops for performers who are already working. Associated Studios is the only Performing Arts Academy in the UK to offer training for performers starting a career as well as industry professionals looking for ongoing professional development
Many of their alumni have gone on to work extensively in the West End.
