Hi, I received the following message regarding UVA Theatre looking to diversify their MFA program this coming fall with a "mature" person of color. Please take a look, if you are interested.

Hello J.J.

Colleen Kelly here from UVA. I hope you are in good health and good spirits! I thought I'd reach out to you because we have one opening in our MFA Acting Program for fall 2020. We are interested in mature candidates (at least a few years out of an undergraduate program—right now we have a class ranging in age from 27-40) and especially interested in creating an ensemble that is diverse. We would like to consider new candidates next week, so please feel free to share my contact information with actors who might want to consider an MFA Degree (contact: jk2s@virginia.edu or my cell: 540-849-8870).

UVA recruits 8 students every three years. General information about the MFA Acting Program is on the Drama Department website: http://drama.virginia.edu/mfa-acting-program.  All MFA Actors receive the same financial package: full tuition remission, a teaching stipend of about $18,000 per year, and there is also some health insurance coverage.

 

Thanks, JJ!

 

Colleen
