A director/choreographer who I have been trying to work with for years says (s)he will hire me as an assistant but does not have funding for me. Can I do this through the Observership program so that I can afford to do this?

See above. Unfortunately, we do not have the funding to fund other opportunities, and a key component of the Observership Program is open access to all candidates. We do not provide funding for selection outside of our opportunities.
