Drama schools list

There is a list of drama schools on the acting article. I'll put a link on from here. To eb honest, there's more information about drama schools on that article than this one. I'll work on it. Lradrama 11:24, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

Someone else has also seen the situation and done it already  ;-) Lradrama 12:53, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

Funding

A new section has been put onto the article. I felt the need to explain the differences between private schools and other ones regarding tuition fees. However, it can be expanded a lot - nothing I can't do but the work of others will be welcomed too. I can only do this for the UK - I don't know about drama tuition in America or Australia - does anyone else? Lradrama 13:02, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Links to drama schools

The list of external links to British, American and Australian drama schools was removed earlier. I have reinstated it. The reason is that there are many websites brought up on Google that just don't give a full list of drama schools in just 1 country, let alone the whole three. People who are researching drama schools may well possess little knowledge and these links make easy work for them. I see no reason why they can't be there. Lradrama 14:46, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia is not a directory. That's the reason I removed it - we're not here to help people, we're here to build an encyclopedia - and encyclopedias list two or three important places, tops! Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry 17:02, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

I don't see that these lists fall under any of the categories listed at WP:NOT#DIR; the lists are not a general directory of every institution that offers drama training in the country (there are many, many more than these), but only of the notable and most important ones (as determined by the criterion of membership of the Conference, in the case of the UK). Each of these warrants its own article on the grounds of notability, so, I'd argue, these entries are a valid and important part of the article. DionysosProteus 14:17, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

Quite correct. Many articles are similar in a whole variety of contexts. Thankyou BTW for your work on the British schools list. The others need to be the same though, for consistency. Lradrama 17:15, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

Curious as to how schools were selected for listing

I was curious as to why CalArts (California Institute of Arts) was left out of the U.S. list and what criteria was used in the selection of those conservatories listed. My son is considering drama schools and is leaning toward the BFA program at CalArts. Obviously, before I spend the huge some of money that it's going to cost to get him there, I want to make sure I'm sending him to one of the best schools. Was it an oversight, or is there some other reason this school was left out?76.30.151.121 (talk) 05:02, 24 September 2008 (UTC)9/23/08

Needs to cover additional countries

The text and references suggest that the article only reflects the UK-Ireland environment. It should also discuss institutions and practices in other English-speaking countries. Especially given the prominence of Broadway and Hollywood in dramatic endeavour, some specific coverage of the United States is needed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Davidhof (talk • contribs) 05:47, 7 February 2017 (UTC)
