The Susi Earnshaw Theatre School is a full-time private school specialising in academics and performing arts in Barnet, North London. The school was established in 1989 by former actress and journalist Susi Earnshaw and her husband David Earnshaw, who was a producer, touring and session musician.
The school was founded in 1989 as a part-time performing-arts school, before becoming a full-time academic and performing arts secondary educational establishment. The Bull Theatre in Barnet is now home to the full-time school and its Saturday School, along with the long established Susi Earnshaw Management television, film, theatre, and live entertainment agency. Pupils gain entry to the full-time school through auditions in drama, dance, singing, and a personal interview.
