The Anna Scher Theatre is a community-based drama school based in Islington, North London. It was founded in 1968 by Anna Scher. ==Anna Scher== Anna Scher is the daughter of Irish mother and Jewish Lithuanian dentist father. Starting out as an actor, her father told her to get a proper job, so she became a journalist specialising in theatre with the ''Islington Gazette'' for five years, and reviewed for ''The Times Literary Supplement''.〔 Scher's philosophy is based on promoting love, peace and understanding through both learning and professionalism. Her heroes are Martin Luther King, Anne Frank, Nelson Mandela and Winston Churchill.〔 She frequently shares with her pupils various meaningful words or sayings which she calls Winston words after Churchill, but which are not necessarily attributed to him. In the past, Scher was chairperson of the International Song Contest for Peace also in Ireland, and served on the juries at BAFTA, the Sony Awards and the Royal Television Society. Since its founding in 1968, Scher has been awarded: *Community award from the ''Irish Post'' *Woman of Distinction Award from Jewish Care *Peace Person of the Year Award, Ireland, 1999 *Associate of RADA *Honorary Fellow of the Leinster School of Music & Drama *Patron of Neve Shalom/Wahat al Salam — Oasis of Peace. *Freedom of the London Borough of Islington, March 2003 *Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Anna Scher Theatre」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
