Kit Award for Stage Managers Fund (Theatre & Drama)

The Kit Award for Stage Managers Fund supports an undergraduate student in the School of Education who is majoring in Theatre and Drama and has secured an unpaid or low-paid internship in stage management (or a related internship). Funds can be used to cover hourly wages or to pay for internship-related expenses such as transportation, relocation, or housing.

You may qualify if:

• You’re an undergraduate Theatre & Drama major.
• You’ve secured an internship opportunity prior to applying for funding. The internship must be connected to your academic program and be a stage management (or related) experience.
• Your internship includes clear expectations with supervision and feedback.

Students who accept a scholarship will be required to complete a post-internship survey which includes a summary paragraph about their experience. Additional post-internship requests will include a photo and/or attendance at an event to engage with scholarship donors.
