Support the Final Stretch of the
“Believe in the Dream” Capital Campaign
The Final Stretch: Help Us Reach Our Goal!
We’re in the home stretch of our $4.4 million Capital Campaign, and we’re thrilled to share that—thanks to the incredible generosity of our community—we’ve already raised nearly $3.9 million. Now, we need your help to cross the finish line!
An anonymous donor has pledged to match every gift—dollar for dollar—up to $50,000, so your contribution today will have double the impact.
This is a pivotal moment for The Hurrah Players as we work to expand both our Performing Arts Academy and our new TV & Film Academy—creating even more opportunities for youth and families to learn, grow, and shine.
Please consider making a gift during this final stretch. Together, we can raise the curtain on a brighter future for our students for generations to come.
Donate now and help us meet the match!

Upcoming Shows
Disney’s High School Musical Jr.
Susan S Goode Theater at Virginia Wesleyan University
Performance Dates:
- August 7 at 7pm
- August 8 at 2pm and 7pm
Disney Channel’s smash hit movie musical comes to life on your stage! Troy, Gabriella and the students of East High must deal with issues of first love, friends and family while balancing their classes and extracurricular activities.
It’s the first day after winter break at East High. The Jocks, Brainiacs, Thespians and Skater Dudes find their cliques, recount their vacations and look forward to the new year. Basketball team captain and resident jock, Troy, discovers that the brainy Gabriella, a girl he met singing karaoke on his ski trip, has just enrolled at East High. They cause an upheaval when they decide to audition for the high school musical that is being led by Ms. Darbus. Although many students resent the threat posed to the “status quo,” Troy and Gabriella’s alliance might just open the door for others to shine as well.
DISNEY’S HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL JR. is presented through special arrangement with Musical Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI. www.MTIShows.com.

The Addams Family
Performance Dates:
- October 3 at 7pm
- October 4 at 2pm and 7pm
- October 5 at 2pm
A comical feast that embraces the wackiness in every family, features an original story and it’s every father’s nightmare: Wednesday Addams, the ultimate princess of darkness, has grown up and fallen in love with a sweet, smart young man from a respectable family – a man her parents have never met. And if that wasn’t upsetting enough, Wednesday confides in her father and begs him not to tell her mother. Now, Gomez Addams must do something he’s never done before – keep a secret from his beloved wife, Morticia. Everything will change for the whole family on the fateful night they host a dinner for Wednesday’s “normal” boyfriend and his parents.
Music and Lyrics by ANDREW LIPPA

About Us
Grateful Hurrah Players Highlight
Hurrah gave me a purpose and helped me discover my passion. I had such a sense of fulfillment at a young age because of The Hurrah Players and Hugh Copeland. It set the track for my career and life.
Through kindness, acceptance and love, Hurrah became a place most of us call home and people we call family. I can never replace the collection of incredible memories I have or the lessons I have learned. I believe anyone who joins will inevitably begin to feel this way and become part of our family.
