Older MT students

Hi there, I'm interested to know if anyone - mainly women- only began formal training at any of the main music theatre courses in their 30s. Does anyone know whether people are accepted into many courses at that age, or if there are some courses that are more open to women in their 30s beginning training there? I imagine they would of course say they were open to any age, but realistically, has anyone heard of people being accepted after their 20s? ;-) R.

Thirties isn't old!

Thirties isn't old! There ought to be places available for older students in the drama schools. Not every actor or role is for 20-30 somethings. And 40 isn't over the hill. My wife completed a creative arts degree in sculpture in her 50s. Jim
