<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center"><b style><span style>The Heather McCallum
Scholarships</span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span style> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span style>The Heather
McCallum Scholarship was established in 1987 by the </span>Canadian Association
for Theatre Research (CATR)<span style> in honour
of the former head of the Theatre Department at the Toronto Reference Library.
In its ongoing commitment to Heather McCallum’s legacy, CATR has increased the
total value of the scholarship and has introduced a second research focus<a name="_GoBack"></a> in order to best represent the breadth and scope of
research activity generated by the CATR membership. Applications for
scholarships totaling $1,500 are invited from graduate students and emerging
scholars (within five years of the completion of a PhD) pursuing projects in
two principal areas: original research in archives and collections; and
research that situates theatre and performance in broader international and
transnational contexts in either historical or contemporary paradigms. The
scholarship may be awarded to one or more applicants in a given year.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span style> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span style>The McCallum scholarships
are intended to allow researchers to enrich their research projects through
travel, access to archives or events, or the purchase of materials. They are
otherwise non-restrictive, including research focusing on Canadian theatre and
performance — pre- and post-Confederation, indigenous, intercultural, and
diasporic. Interdisciplinary projects, which take researchers outside
traditional theatre archives, are welcome. The final outcome of the project is also
non-restrictive (it may be a doctoral dissertation, proposed publication, or a
new or on-going research initiative). Proposals will be assessed on the basis
of their potential contributions to the study of theatre and performance as
outlined in the aims and objectives of the Association.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span style> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span style>2) An anticipated breakdown
