Higher Education Bursaries
Our Bursary scheme is currently closed until further notice
As part of our work to support the next generation of theatre makers we offer a bursary scheme to local young people.

This bursary scheme is being facilitated by Mayflower Theatre and is awarded to young people who reside in Hampshire. Through this scheme young people have the opportunity to access funding to support training or development opportunities that pertain to the arts.
