Need Statement – We would like to graduate
students that are completely prepared for college
theatre or a professional career if they choose.
Our program has a history of success in many
areas, particularly for the performance actor. In
terms of Technical Theatre, the program has
centered around lighting, sound and set design,
etc.
Goals –
◦ Become THE complete theatre experience by
providing our students with a working
knowledge of costume design, hair/makeup
design and theatre management.

Answer these questions:
◦ Why is this project important?
◦ How does the project relate to your Campus
Improvement Plan?
◦ How does this project benefit the students?


With limited space in the main course, we want
to expand in another overlooked area in Theatre
Tech
This course would offer our students an
opportunity to learn the last piece of the theatre
puzzle.
This course would provide a working knowledge
of such things as costume construction and
makeup design as well as the history of such
important elements.

Principal Signature - Important change!

You CANNOT spend funds for ANYTHING except for what it was
approved for.

ALL signed grant applications must be scanned and submitted
online only.

Review your application for incomplete or incorrect information
prior to submission.


The name of the campus/department can not be in the body of
the grant. This will automatically disqualify your grant
application.
When considering an innovative idea that would require
technology or M&O services, be considerate of those
departments by providing ample time for their review.
