Our company's mission is to foster and showcase the best improv and comedy in Australia.
Referring to our core values, we'd like to make it easier to engage students who might not otherwise be able to afford our workshops, provided they can help us in our goals of fostering diversity and/or showcasing excellence.
Our scholarships exist to build pathways to performing on or writing for our stage. It's absolutely fine to apply if that's not your immediate goal, as long as you are open to the possibility of doing that in the future.
However, if you know that you aren't interested in that long-term outcome, or that you won't be living in Melbourne for the foreseeable future, you may not be a suitable candidate.
The goals of our diversity program are to:
We offer the following scholarship categories to students who would improve our institutional diversity:
Each category must be applied for separately. Selected applicants will receive between 25% and 100% off of their workshops course fees
No prior acting, writing or comedy experience is required to apply for an introductory level, and you can apply for an advanced level even if you did not receive support for an earlier level.
Our not-for-profit wing Improv Conspiracy Productions Limited funds these scholarships, along with other community-oriented efforts. If you'd like to help us achieve our goals, please consider making a donation.
We offer payment plans to help you spread the cost of your course fees out over the duration of our 4- and 8-week courses. In most cases a minimum 25% deposit is required to reserve our spot in a course.
We also offer work-study opportunities for students who are interested in volunteering at the theatre in exchange for class credit.
Please contact us for more information.
