About the Foundation

The Burry Fredrik Foundation’s overall mission is to champion the growth and the continuing health of Connecticut’s non-profit professional producing theaters. The Foundation supports Connecticut theaters and associated artists with a proven track record of accomplishments. An emphasis is placed on supporting theaters working with playwrights and composers who are actively developing and producing new works. In addition, through its Burry Fredrik Design Fellowship, the Foundation supports Connecticut college or university training of new design talent for the theater. Grant applications are by invitation only and are open to professional producing theaters operating in the state of Connecticut. To inquire about support from the Burry Fredrik Foundation, please contact Barbara Pearce at bpearce@burryfredrikfoundation.org and Michael Ross at mross@burryfredrikfoundation.org.
