The Oxford Samuel Beckett Theatre Trust Award aims to help the development of emerging experimental theatre practitioners and to encourage the new generation of creative artists. Support is aimed at assisting artists in the transition from fringe to studio spaces. A grant of up to £30,000 and a three week run at The Riverside Studios (Studio 3) in November 2004 will be awarded to an individual or company for a production of their choice. The following additional support will be provided: a mentor attached to the project; guidance and support from the Artistic and Administrative team of the Riverside Studios (i.e. financial management, contracting, press and publicity, assisting in the long term strategic development of their work, identifying potential colleagues both artistic and technical, advising on technical aspects of the production); one week of technical rehearsals in Studio 3 will be provided before the three week run; and help in finding subsidized rehearsal space.Artists from all disciplines are encouraged to apply. Bold, innovative and challenging projects will be favoured. Successful applications are likely to be from those with some professional theatre experience but no more than 1 or 2 productions in a studio or a larger space. Applicants must be UK citizens and normally resident in the UK. Those who are or have been recipients of fixed-term funding, or are in full time education will not be eligible for the award. Shows with a previous production history will not be considered. Deadline for applications is 20th February 2004. Further information and submission guidelines are available on the website.
