As part of Northern Stage’s Education Department’s ongoing mission to make our programs accessible to theater lovers throughout our community, we have implemented a Sliding Scale Tuition Assistance Program. Eligibility for financial assistance is determined on a case by case basis, using the charts as a guidepost but also offering families the opportunity to share extenuating circumstances that might impact eligibility through an optional Statement of Need.

Families only need to apply for Sliding Scale once a year, with the resulting award being applied toward participation in all education programs your family would like to participate in throughout our Education season, which runs from June 1 through May 31.

In addition to Sliding Scale tuition, Northern Stage also offers need-based scholarships and payment plans for our education programs. For any questions, please contact Co-Directors of Education Sam Empey at sempey@northernstage.org and Kevin David Thomas at kthomas@northernstage.org.
