Apply for the Send-A-Troupe Festival Grant

Up to two current Thespian troupes will receive a one-time grant of up to $500 to assist with the basic Iowa Thespian Festival registration fees for a troupe director, inducted Thespians, and appropriate number of chaperones. The selected troupes may allocate the $500 grant to off-set the troupe's registration fees however they choose. Additional students and/or chaperones beyond the $500 grant may be included in the registration at the troupe's expense. The application can be submitted by a Thespian troupe director or school administrator with the approval of the troupe director.
