How We Began

The Harold Company Performers was founded in August 2024 by

Amy J. and Chad Jagger, after Amy J. finished performing in her local summer community theater production.

As a life-long participant in and supporter of the arts, her role in this musical served as a healing reminder that laughter is a blessing, working with those you love really isn't work, and the Lord made each of us with specific gifts and abilities which are meant to be shared.

With some additional investigation, work, and determination of a core team of people, The Harold Company Performers was born.

Who We Are

The Harold Company Performers is entirely comprised of volunteers, and we seek to fill a very specific lane in Whitley County and beyond. Our shows are rooted in the spirit of summer stock theater, where performers are incredibly self-motivated, hard-working, uber-prepared, and talented. With each cast, it is our desire to put the right people in the right spots, with no more than two weeks of rehearsal before opening night.

Our Namesake

Harold Norman

Harold Norman, beloved Chruubusco High School Englighsh teacher and theater director, is part of co-founder Amy J. Jagger's, and many other participants' , very being. He demanded and received quality on stage and off, continuing his connection with several of them years after their graduations as both mentor and friend. His influence spans decades and generations, as his former students and their students are spread throughout the United States, working in varied professional fields, but many still making the arts a priority in their lives. Harold passed away December, 2020, and it is the hope of the co-founder and the founding board of directors, that the work of The Harold Company Performers will always keep his memory alive.
