Mountview returns to joint leadership structure

Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts has reverted to a joint leadership model.

The decision follows the resignation of Chief Executive and Artistic Director Abigail Morris, who took up the post in September last year.

According to The Stage, Morris left the drama school in summer. Former Head of Undergraduate Performance Sally Ann Gritton is now Principal, with Sam Hansford, who was previously Executive Director at the Yard Theatre, now Executive Director.

A Mountview spokesperson said the school’s board took the decision to revert to being led jointly following Morris’ resignation.
