of Theatretrain
Returning from a teaching secondment in New Zealand, Paul Clark started a teaching position in Theatretrain Northampton. After 2 years he moved to Rugby and again worked at the local Theatretrain where he stayed for 4 years. It was when he moved to Devon and started working at a boarding school that he realised he missed the shows and trips he had organised at Theatretrain. He decided then that his next step was setting up his own theatre school and it made sense that Theatertrain was the ideal choice for him. He set up Theatretrain Exeter in 2017.
