Getting Started

Lao Tzu wrote, “A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step,”

In December 2025, Full Circle Productions took its first step and turned on the faucet.

Full Circle Productions is building a platform for summer production opportunities for both emerging and established artists—a place for local talent to reconnect with the community that helped shape them.

Mission Statement

To help build the future of the Hampton Roads arts community as a creative incubator and destination by recognizing and primarily utilizing local talent to produce high-quality summer theatrical productions.

Vision

Full Circle Productions is committed to creating theatrical  opportunities that feature professional and pre-professional artists with ties to our region in order to provide engaging summer entertainment for both residents and visitors—inviting local talent to come “full circle” by contributing to professional-quality summer stock musical theatre.

Our goal is to build a sustainable creative platform that elevates meaningful stories, and fosters community connection in Hampton Roads.

Core Values

3. Integrity

4. Excellence

We pursue artistic and operational excellence, delivering professional and impactful projects that enrich the participants and audiences.
