The Donald C. & Elizabeth Dickinson Foundation Cygnet Scholarship & Theatrical Summer Job Opportunity

The Cygnet Theatre continues to offer four $2,500 scholarships to high school seniors who are dedicated to pursuing theatre. Students must be committed to enhancing their professional and artistic abilities through a nationwide theatre conservatory, college, or university.

Additionally, we will be seeking four talented singers to join our summer outreach tour, “From the Page to the Stage.” Specifically, we are looking for a tenor, a baritone, a high soprano with belt capability, and another female singer with a contemporary high belt voice. This is a paid opportunity.

The Application Period is from August 26 to September 27, 2024

The audition-based process:

  • Teachers at each participating school will nominate 6 to 8 students from their theatre program who demonstrate singing and acting abilities. Students must prepare 32 bars of a song that aligns with the vocal requirements for our outreach tour, along with a one-minute monologue that is commercially appropriate for their age.
  • Cygnet will conduct a 90-minute workshop for the identified students at each participating school. Schools can choose from the following dates: Wednesday, October 16, 23, 30, November 6, 13, and 20, 2024.
  • Cygnet will select 1 to 3 students from each participating school to move forward to the “Cygnet Scholarship Day” on Monday, February 24, 2025, at Cygnet Theatre in Old Town San Diego.
