The Un-Common Theatre Company is currently accepting applications for two $500 college scholarships.

The first $500 scholarship will be awarded to a Mansfield High School 2018 graduate. This scholarship is offered each year in appreciation for the Town of Mansfield's support of The Un-Common Theatre Company over the past 30 years.

The second $500 scholarship will be awarded to an Un-Common Theatre Company Alumni who will be graduating from high school in 2018. In order to qualify, the alumni must have participated in any aspect of an Un-Common Theatre Company production including acting, directing or technical assistance.

The applicants for the 2018 scholarships must meet the following requirements: involvement in music or theatre 3 out of 4 years during their high school years, an interest in pursuing music or theatre in the future, and continuation of education at an accredited 2 or 4 year institution. The added requirement of past participation with Un-Common Theatre Company applies to the Alumni Scholarship.

Applications are available at www.uncommontheatre.org - click on NEWS & EVENTS. The Mansfield High School Scholarship application is also available at the MHS guidance office. For additional information, please email info@uncommontheatre.org. In order to be considered, all applications must be returned by email or postmarked by April 15th.

This year the Un-Common Theatre Company is celebrating our 38th year of teaching kids life skills through the professional theatre experience. Un-Common provides aspiring young actors, singers, musicians, and technicians, an opportunity to work under the guidance of theater professionals and perform in professional theater houses. We seek to develop children's confidence, self-esteem, teamwork and effective life skills in an environment in which creativity and appropriate risk-taking are encouraged.
