The Lazarus Family Musical Theater Program
Undergraduate students are invited to apply for project funding from The Lazarus Family Musical Theater Program fund established for the support of student-initiated projects in musical theater to be presented on campus with a priority given to original work. Although projects need not be curricular to be considered, senior projects which bring together work in theater and music are appropriate. In the absence of proposals featuring original music, lyrics and/or text by students, productions which are to be directed, choreographed and designed by students also can be considered.

Guidelines for Application
1. The fund makes up to $3,500 available to sponsor student-initiated projects as defined above.

2. The applicant must ask a faculty member or an ensemble director to serve as an advisor for the project.

3. The applicant(s) seeking financial support must submit a proposal that includes a full description of the project, including information on scheduling and possible venues for production, a budget, letters of support from arts faculty or ensemble advisors, and any relative documentation of earlier work in the area of musical theater. NOTE: Letters of commitment from any other department or program whose funding, facilities, or other resources are critical to the project’s success must be included. If departmental resources are required, applicants must include a letter of support from the Department Chair with the completed application.

4. Applications to other sources of College funding will not disqualify an applicant, but particular attention will be paid to projects for which the Lazarus Family Musical Theater Program will be the primary source of funding.

5. The Director of the Hopkins Center will review applications, and will determine the amounts to be granted. Her decisions will be final. In the event that no project is selected for funding in a given year, the unallocated award money will be carried forward.

6. Awards ordinarily will be made to sophomores and juniors. First-year students would need to make an exceptionally strong case in order to receive consideration. Seniors’ projects must be completed before graduation.

7. Funds will not be provided for professional fees, honoraria, travel or equipment.

8. Award recipients are requested to send a summary of their project to the Lazarus family upon completion of the project.
