HFF21 scholarship winners announced!

The Hollywood Fringe would like to congratulate the 15 members of the 2021 Fringe Scholarship Program.
After numerous conversations and intense deliberation by our selection committee, faced with an incredibly difficult choice over many qualified applications for this award, we are proud to announce the 2021 Fringe Scholarship winners.

The Winners of the 2021 Fringe Scholarships are:

• 1.5 Korean

• Happily Ever After
• JUNK GIRLS

There were additionally four applicants that struck the heart of our committee, and have received honorable mentions: Innocence, Inequity, and Injustice: Ft. 21 Chump St., Late Nite Daze and Margaret Garner solo show.

As an open-access festival, we seek to foster a ground-breaking community of artists and make performances more accessible, both to the artists who produce them and for those who otherwise cannot afford to see theatre. Our committee firmly believes that these productions will enrich audience experience and the quality of the Hollywood Fringe Festival’s artistic offerings through the presentation of unique and underrepresented themes.

Each scholarship recipient will receive free registration and a $550 stipend towards production costs, a Fringe mentor, and marketing and networking opportunities as a member of the Fringe community. Fringe Scholarships are available to first-time Hollywood Fringe producers who contribute to the ethnic, cultural, racial, intellectually or physically disabled, D/deaf, and the LGBTQ+ diversity of the Fringe community.
