The Real Escuela Superior de Arte Dramático (RESAD, transl. Royal Higher College of Performing Arts) is a drama school in Madrid, Spain.
History[edit]
It traces its origins back to the foundation of the Escuela de Declamación Española (transl. Spanish Declamation School) in May 1831.[1][2] Proposed by Francesco Piermarini, director of the Real Conservatorio de Música María Cristina, the school was initially integrated within the Conservatory, founded a year earlier.[3] The 1857 Moyano Law conferred the status of higher studies to the studies in the school.[3]
The RESAD opened its premises in the Niño Jesús neighborhood in Madrid, next to El Retiro, in October 1996.[4] The RESAD offers three specialisations: 'Stage Direction & Dramaturgy' (dirección escénica y dramaturgia), 'Scenography Design' (escenografía), and 'Acting' (interpretación).[5]
