AJT Theatremachers
In 2014, AJT introduced the Theatremachers, a fellowship for young theatre makers ages 18-36. Seven attended and actively participated in the 2014 conference, expecting to continue to be active contributors to the Alliance longer after everyone flies home.
Have you been curious about AJT’s Theatremacher Program? Are you or someone you know interested in applying? The program is a fellowship for theatre makers ages 18 – 36 years old to collaborate, gather for monthly labs, work together as a cohort, get access to network opportunities, and the chance to showcase their work!
