Scholarships and Bursuries | ||||||||
| Showcase Productions Society provides opportunities for, and financial assistance to, deserving students who wish to further their interest in the many facets of the performing arts. To-date, Showcase Productions Society has given in excess of $100,000 to deserving students. In the beginning, the group’s founder, Ed MacKay, took $1,000.00 from an honourarium paid to him to conduct a theatre feasibility study, and established a scholarship which was awarded to Kevin Corbett. This first recipient of the scholarship fund went on to study music at Dalhousie University. Since then, the group has continued to provide avenues and opportunities for students wishing to attend post secondary education institutions. Showcase Productions Society has funded students who have attended Mount Allison University, Dalhousie University, Acadia University, Dalhousie Theatre School, the prestigious Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts in London as well as countless theatre and choral workshops and summer camps. To date, from their scholarship and sponsorship fund, the group have provided financial funding to deserving students in excess of $84,000. Showcase Productions Society is the only community theatre group in Atlantic Canada to offer two such scholarships to students wishing to pursue post-secondary studies in the performing arts.
