The Garrick Club

The David Garrick Scholarship

The The David Garrick Scholarship for drama (acting) students was launched in 2022.

The Scholarship, set up and funded by Garrick members, is a registered charity whose sole purpose is to provide scholarships to students in the last year of their 2 or 3 year professional drama (acting) course. Those eligible for nomination should demonstrate considerable or potential acting talent.

Invitations for submissions are circulated to Drama Schools in England, Wales and Scotland and auditions take place in June in good time for the forthcoming year of study, which starts in September.

The value of each scholarship is £5,000 per student, which will be paid directly to the Drama Schools for tuition fees. Those awarded scholarships will be invited to the Club annually to meet with the Scholarship Trustees and donors.

Contributions to the Scholarship will be gratefully received and donations can be made via the David Garrick Scholarship Just Giving page.

The Scholarship is registered for GiftAid so each donation will result in a further 25% being received by the charity.

All donations will be gratefully received and the more funds received, the greater the number of scholarships available to assist talented future players on the stage.
