The Titan Award is an advanced level of career development available to exceptional theatre artists who complete the ATLAS program (Advanced Training Leading Artists to Success) and apply for consideration.

To apply, ATLAS participants must submit their completed career maps for evaluation by a panel of professionals. The panel selects a limited number of these participants to be Titan Award winners, each receiving a year-long mentorship with an established professional in his or her field and a $1,000 grant toward implementing the career map.
