BBC Performing Arts Fund - Community Theatre

The BBC Performing Arts Fund – Community Theatre scheme aims to support the development of not for profit community theatre groups.

Grants of up to £5,000 are awarded to allow groups to carry out training, attract new audiences, encourage new members and raise their profile in their communities.

The Fund wants to encourage groups to take on more challenging projects through commissions and encouraging collaboration with professional theatre makers and other local organisations. 

The closing date for applications to the fund is Monday 16 September.
