Re-Creation USA holds over 300 shows annually all over the Untied States. These young volunteers have been boosting the spirits of veterans with their live show since 1971.
Established over 25 years ago by a professor at Penn State. Hugh Brooks understood the therapeutic benefits that live entertainment brought to America’s institutions. By 1983 Re-Creation’s song and dance became the only continuing live entertainment for America’s hospitalized veterans in VA Medical Centers. |

| Re-Creation presents outstanding professional talent to an audience that would otherwise not be able to get out and see such wonderful entertainment. These young performers provide an unforgettable experience and an invaluable contribution to the healing process. |

Hear what some of the Medial Centers have to say about Re-Creation USA:
"The entertainment provided by RE-CREATION was greatly anticipated and well received. The programs were a huge success in part because you gave so willingly and graciously to make it all come together. We could not have asked for better performances." Linda Zaiontz – Chief, Recreation Therapy – S. Texas Veterans Heath Care System |
"The Talent and energetic performance, especially caring attitude the performers expressed toward the residents, inspired everyone who attended the event. It was an outstanding evening of song, dance and entertainment. Many nursing home residents are unable to attend the theatre in the community due to health-related issues. Your generosity and caring has brought the theatre to them, and for this, they are grateful. We look forward to seeing these talented performers in the near future." Lee grace Cannella – Assistant Director Therapeutic Recreation – Long Island State Veterans Home |
"Please accept my sincere thanks on behalf of our hospitalized veterans for your organization’s sponsorship of Re-Creation. The patients enjoyed the group’s musical presentation on Thursday May 31, 2007."Donna Ruthwicz – Chief, Voluntary Service – Rhode Island Veterans Medical Center |
