Thanks to the Joseph H. Shoctor Fund, we are able to offer a limited number of partial scholarships. These scholarships enhance community accessibility to our programs and provide students with the opportunity to train in the performing arts. Following in the spirit of these donations, recipients may be asked to volunteer/participate in certain Foote Theatre School, Young Company and other Citadel Theatre related activities.

The Citadel Theatre Young Companies assesses scholarship applications based on the following criteria:

1. Financial need
2. A demonstrated commitment to study
3. Artistic potential
