Seabreeze High School's Theatre Department recently received a $10,000 donation from local attorney Jack T. Cook, co-founder of Halifax Repertory Theatre.
The funds will support the school's upcoming production of "Mamma Mia," to open in the Seabreeze auditorium at 6 p.m. on Friday, Feb. 20, with additional performances at 6 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 21, and 2 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 22.
Cook graduated from Seabreeze in 1995 and was a member of the school’s American Musical Theatre program, an experience he credits with helping shape his confidence, discipline, and lifelong passion for the performing arts.
“This program gave me opportunities that had a lasting impact on my life,” Cook said in a press release. “Supporting Seabreeze’s arts department is incredibly meaningful to me, especially knowing how powerful theatre education can be for students today.”
Cook serves as the primary donor to HRT, helping to elevate and expand access to the arts throughout the county, the press release states. The donation will help provide students with a professional-quality theatrical experience while ensuring the arts remain accessible and thriving within the school community.
Tickets to "Mamma Mia" can be purchased directly through Seabreeze High School at https://our.show/mammamiaseabreeze.
