The founding principal of The Julie Taymor World Theater Fellowship is to provide travel opportunities for enterprising young theater directors to immerse themselves in artistic experiences beyond our borders; thereby, expanding their creative horizons to include previously undiscovered styles and techniques which can best be experienced in direct dialogue and work with creative artists from other cultures. It is our hope that through travel to and dialogue with world theater artists, American fellowship recipients will increase their creative capacity and return to enliven the American theater with new productions fueled by their expanded perspective of world theater in Africa, Central and South America, Asia, and/or the Middle East.
Applications for the Julie Taymor World Theater Fellowship are accepted on a rolling basis throughout the year. The deadline to be considered for a 2018-19 fellowship is May 1, 2018 at 11:59 p.m. EST.
After your application has been reviewed, you may be invited to interview.
A maximum of 4 fellowships will be awarded each year.
To apply, email a completed application form and all supplementary materials to admin@tjtwtf.com
