Ovation! Scholarship Fund

In the spring of 2011, Ovation!'s Board of Directors unanimously voted to create and personally support a The Ovation! Scholarship Fund to be utilized to recognize excellence in the performing arts and scholarship by a graduating Bainbridge High School senior. The Ovation! Scholarship Fund will also be utilized to help support talented youth performers who require financial assistance to participate in classes offered by The Ovation! Performing Arts Academy, which includes the two youth show choirs Glee and Voce'.
The Board voted to recognize graduating Bainbridge High School senior Carter Kight as the first recipient of this award. Audiences will rembember Carter from his appearances in many Ovation! productions - including as Jack in Into The Woods and The Emcee in Cabaret - and from his appearances with other local groups and schools. Carter began working with Ovation! when he was in the 5th grade and has not only grown into an accomplished actor, singer and dancer, but has also demonstrated excellence in scholarship. He will be attending the University of Washington in the Fall of 2011. (Pictured is Carter Kight with Ovation! Artistic Director Ron Milton and Tom Burt, Board President.)
