Director's Travel Assistance
- Purpose: In order to promote the growth and sharing of knowledge amongst WDTF theatre societies by providing financial assistance to cover directors (theatrical, musical and technical) who are working for a society with which they are not usually associated. Travel Assistance: A financial grant of up to $200 can be made towards (i.e. it is not designed entirely to cover) a director’s travel expenses at the following rates based on the return mileage between the director’s place of residence and the society’s rehearsal venue: 40 – 50km: grant of $125 50 – 60km: grant of $150 60 – 70km: grant of $175 70km+: grant of $200 Application Considerations: The WDTF Executive will determine whether or not to award a grant on a case-by-case basis. In making its decision the Executive will be guided by the Purpose (above) and the following considerations:
- > Is this the first time/first time for several years the director has been approached to direct for the
- applying society? (NOTE: if the director regularly participates in that society’s activities in a non-
- directorial capacity then, mileage notwithstanding, an application is less likely to succeed)
- In the event of a grant being made the fact of the grant must be acknowledged in the programme.
