Roberta Elliott Memorial Award

Roberta Elliott was as much of Circle Arts Theatre as anyone can be. Literally raised in the theatre from its creation when she was 14, she would spend the rest of her life making theatre and changing lives. In 1978 she created The Inner Circle, our touring youth company. And for 44 years, she helped shape young people by being an incredible director, mentor and friend. This award will go to one graduating senior from The Inner Circle each year that has shown the true spirit of theatre and community while in the program.
