The National Theatre of Greece Drama School (GNT Drama School) was founded in 1930, since when it has operated in tandem with the National Theatre of Greece. In its history a number of its graduates have gone on to become major actors and stars of the National Theatre.
Former students of the Drama School include Dimitris Horn, Mary Aroni, Vasso Manolidou, Nikos Tzogias, Melina Mercouri, Thanos Kotsopoulos, Alexis Solomos, Stelios Vokovic, Nikos Kourkoulos, Anna Synodinou and Zozo Zarpa.[1] Many of them went on to teach at the School, which has always been renowned for the extremely high level of its teaching. Other great names that have taught at the school include Dimitris Rondiris, Katina Paxinou, Takis Mouzenidis, Angelos Terzakis, Antigone Valakou, Tassos Lignadis, Giannis Sideris, Emilios Hourmouzios and others.[2]
Since 8 February 2023 it has stopped functioning due to the mass resignation of the faculty, as a result of 85/2022 Presidential Decree, according to which all graduates are considered equivalent to holders of High School degrees.
