Town Stages began awarding the fellowships this year for artists, entrepreneurs, writers, and content creators. The fellowships are awarded in conjunction with Sokoloff Arts, the charitable nonprofit that operates Town Stages.

Sokoloff describes the fellowship as part residency, part incubator, and part home base, offering 鈥渢he ultimate creative freedom to grow.鈥 It offers free access to shared spaces, rehearsal/performance/event space subsidies, and 鈥渢he opportunity to be a part of a shared creative community, working together under one roof.鈥

每日大赛官网鈥檚 Department of Theatre seeks to provide a strong foundation in theatre while allowing the student to emphasize in a particular area such as directing, acting, or arts administration.

The coursework is integrated with the production work to provide a better understanding of the many facets of the theatre. Required participation on stage or backstage on all theatre productions allows the techniques and theories that are examined in the classroom and the laboratory to be tested in a performance setting.
