Hurrah Players

Education

Do You Want to be a Hurrah Player?

Dedicated to the idea of learning by doing, The Hurrah Players provides a joyous learning experience for all ages. Classes include acting, dancing, singing, musical theatre and stage craft, all of which serve to build artistic and creative skills.

This instruction is then translated into a hands-on educational experience through the mounting of several main-stage and Perry Family Theatre series productions annually.

We accept students starting at age 5 and offer a variety of classes for children and adults.

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.

Grant Gustin The Flash

Hugh was a mentor to me and was able to show me at a young age I was different and an instrument that could tell stories and move people and touch people's hearts.

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.
