6) Can I get a grant or funding to study at the mime school?
Many students obtain grants and bursaries from educational, arts or government bodies in their own countries. For UK residents, the main funding bodies for professional theatre training are local authorities and the Arts Council.

7) How can I find accommodation in London?
Many students find shared accommodation once they start at the school, but it is important that you find somewhere to stay before you arrive in London. Once in London, you can buy a copy of Loot, a paper with listings for accommodation. There are a variety of options, from flat and houseshares to short term lets of single apartments. A web search will yield a number of websites offering accommodation, the most popular being www.loot.com. If you arrive without having found an accomodation, you will be able to count on the solidarity between students for advices and help. However, the school cannot provide or be expected to provide accomodation.

8) Do you offer workshops?
The school offers an annual 2-week summer workshop in July for new students, professionals and those considering full-time mime training. We also offer workshops upon request to schools, universities and other groups. For details of these, see our Outreach and Education page or email us.

9) How can I see the work of the students at the school?
Steven Wasson and Corinne Soum create a new show with their students at the end of each school year. The show is usually performed at the end of june in a theatre in London. Contact us at the end of May for more details.
