Bush Davies School of Theatre Arts was a dance and performing arts school in the United Kingdom.[citation needed] Founded by the dance teacher Pauline Bush in Nottingham in 1914,[1] and later with branches in Romford, Essex and London; it was bombed out during the Second World War and then moved to a former boys' school East Grinstead. The Romford branch closed in 1974 and the East Grinstead branch in 1989.[citation needed] After Pauline Bush's death, the school was run by her daughter Noreen and her husband Victor Leopold. Later their son Paul Kimm joined them, and he remained Principal until the school closed.
