About The Jonathan Larson Grants:
Jonathan Larson's dream was to infuse musical theatre with a contemporary, joyful, urban vitality. Although he did not live to see it happen, his dream was achieved through the phenomenal success of his musical RENT. The Jonathan Larson Grants were created with the understanding that without the grants that supplemented Jonathan's meager income, Jonathan might never have written Rent. The grants program was established 14 years ago as a place for individual creative theatre artists to turn to for financial support and encouragement. Initially given by the Jonathan Larson Performing Arts Foundation, these grants have recognized and supported more than eighty composers, lyricists, and librettists at the start of their careers. The Jonathan Larson Grants honor the talented creator of RENT and ensure that his spirit continues to inspire the future of American musical theatre. www.americantheatrewing.org/larsongrants
