East 15 Acting School, sometimes known simply as East 15, is a drama school based in Essex, England.[1] The School provides vocational conservatoire training in acting, specialist performance disciplines, theatre directing, stage management and creative producing.[1]

The School was established in 1961 by Margaret Bury, a member of Joan Littlewood's Theatre Workshop. Theatre Workshop's guiding principles continue to inform East 15's teaching and productions today.

East 15 offers a number of undergraduate and postgraduate courses across two campuses, located in Loughton and Southend-on-Sea. Its degrees are awarded by the University of Essex, with which it merged on 1 September 2000.[2][3] In 2024, East 15 (as part of the University of Essex), was ranked fourth in the UK in The Guardian's University Guide rankings for Drama and Dance.[4]

It is a member of the Federation of Drama Schools.[5]
