Bush Davies School of Theatre Arts

Bush Davies School of Theatre Arts was a renowned dance and performing arts school in the United Kingdom. Founded by the dance teacher Pauline Bush in Nottingham in 1914, and later with branches in Romford, Essex and London after which it moved to a former boys' school set in beautiful grounds in East Grinstead, the Romford branch continued until 1974 when property speculation forced its closure, it would become recognised as one of the foremost performing arts schools in the United Kingdom, until its closure in 1989. After Pauline's death, the school was run by her daughter Noreen, herself a very accomplished dancer who became recognised as one of Britain's foremost ballet teachers and examiners for the Royal Academy of Dancing and her husband Victor Leopold, one of Britain's most renowned tap dancers. Later their son Paul Kimm joined them, and he remained Principal until the school closed.

In May 1959, Marjorie Davies produced and directed the musical "What Katy Did" by Jo Masters, which starred students of the Bush Davies School with Pat Goh as Katy.
