CWRU Theater Scholarship Weekend

Audition or present a portfolio for a full-tuition scholarship!


Hosted by the Case Western Reserve University Theater Department, Theater Scholarship Weekend provides prospective actors, directors, playwrights, designers, technicians and stage managers with an opportunity to spend the weekend attending performances on campus, meeting Theater Department faculty and students, and auditioning or interviewing for full- and partial-tuition scholarships.
 
All meals as well as accommodations Friday and Saturday night with current theater students will be provided.
 
About the scholarship
 
Each year, CWRU’s theater department awards four full-tuition scholarships to incoming first-year students who wish to major in theater, and two $10,000 merit scholarships to students who wish to minor in theater or pursue theater as an extracurricular.

About the weekend
 
Prospective students meet faculty and their overnight hosts Friday at 4 p.m. in the lobby of CWRU's own Eldred Theater. That evening, students can participate in either a design bash with current scenic and costume designers or an improv session with acting faculty and students.
 
Saturday morning, prospective students participate in a question-and-answer session with current CWRU theater students and faculty. In the afternoon, they have the opportunity to audition or present a portfolio as part of our scholarship competition.
 
The weekend is topped off Saturday night with tickets to the undergraduate production of 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee at Eldred Theater, followed by a performance by CWRU’s student improv comedy group, IMPROVment, in the Eldred Theater Black Box.
