Tina Sergeant Professional Development Initiative - Theatre Arts Conference 2025

Each year, the Tina Sergeant Professional Development Initiative provides subsidies to SDEA events, masterclasses or training programmes and is offered to SDEA members who are practitioners and educators based in Singapore. Through this initiative, we wish to encourage practitioners and educators to make professional development a regular part of their practice. 

Chosen applicants will receive up to SGD$300 in subsidies for the SDEA Theatre Arts Conference 2025.
