The Virginia Players is the producing company for the courses in Playwriting
and Dramatic Art in the McIntire School of Fine Arts. It is incorporated
under the laws of the State of Virginia as a non-stock corporation: the
trustees: President E. A. Alderman, professors J. C. Metcalf, J. S. Wilson,
W. H. Faulkner, W. S. Rodman, A. J. Barlow, H R. Pratt and one member
from the student body. Its purpose is to develop a State Theatre which will
seek to interpret Virginia to its people through the writing and production of
original plays, and to stage revivals of classic and modern plays. Only those
enrolled as students in the University are eligible to election as Active Members.
Others who participate in the work may be elected Associate Members.
