Crossroads Live and Mountview share a commitment to removing barriers to careers in the arts and believe that a person’s circumstances should never prevent them from reaching their potential. This partnership continues this commitment at a time when the cost-of-living crisis is particularly impacting the next generation of talent. Scholarships totalling £100,000 will provide support to those who could not afford to train in theatre without it.
“As a former actor who wishes he’d had the chance to attend drama school, I’m delighted to create Crossroads Live Scholarships, in partnership with Mountview, one of the UK’s leading drama schools. It’s vitally important that we do whatever we can to help encourage and support the next generation of acting talent and Crossroads Live’s financial commitment to this scheme over the next four years will help make their dreams a reality. We look forward to employing our first Crossroads Live Scholar in the future!”
“Mountview is incredibly excited to announce this new four-year sponsorship from Crossroads Live. These scholarships will enable some of the most talented students in the UK to train at Mountview. The impact of this partnership cannot be understated, helping us to achieve our commitment to access and continue to deliver a pipeline of extraordinarily skilled performers to the creative industries. We’re especially delighted that this support comes from one of the industry’s leading producers who employ dozens of Mountview graduates each year and who recognise this essential need for supporting the next generation of talent.”
