The British American Drama Academy (BADA) was set up in 1983 by Tony Branch and Carolyn Sands. Its goal is to enable students from around the world to study classical theatre with actors and directors of the
British theatre. The program moved in 1985 to
Regents Park, London. Since 1988, it has been affiliated with
Sarah Lawrence College, which has spring and fall semesters with BADA in London for credit.
