Theatre

DID YOU KNOW -- At over 2,100 annually, more boys participate in theatre than in any other VHSL academic activity, and theatre is the VHSL's second most popular activity overall (next to Scholastic Bowl) with 75% of schools taking part.

During the 1931-32 school year, Sussex-Stoney Creek, Highland Springs and George Washington-Danville took the titles in their respective divisions. These days, Madison County and Galax High Schools are the most likely contenders for Group A state titles, though J.J. Kelly took its first title in 2007-08. With the once-dominant Appomattox County out of the way, the field is now open for festival regulars, Pulaski County, Abingdon and Salem-Salem, though Harrisonburg came from nowhere to take the more recent title with its production of Working. 

In 2010-11, Chantilly High School won the Group AAA title with its production of AP Theatre, while in Group AA, Lafayette High School of Williamsburg also won with its production of Over the River and Through the Woods.  In Group A, Nelson County High School claimed its second title with its production of The History of Tom Jones.
