It’s been a full three years and counting since we started our scholarship program for design students at NIDA. Recipients are hand picked by Head of Design, Michael Scott‐Mitchell. The funding helps buy the materials they need to experiment, and offsets living costs such as food, transport and rent.
So, how have our bright young things fared in the world of theatre?
Well, our inaugural recipient Elizabeth Gadsby has worked on exciting projects in New Orleans, London and regional Australia. Most recently, she worked on a production for the West Australian Ballet
Our 2013–14 recipient, Hugh O’Connor, has worked on a range of productions including at Sydney’s acclaimed Griffin Theatre Company, The Stables and Seymour Centre.
Congratulations and we hope to continue hearing of your successes!
