Cues for Cancer creates spaces — on stage and off — that uplift, inspire, and help change lives for individuals and families impacted by cancer, from anywhere in the country.
Cues for Cancer is a Norfolk, Virginia–based nonprofit creating meaningful impact through the power of community, creativity, and connection — supporting those affected by cancer through engaging events, performances, and collaborative experiences.
Gatherings that bring survivors, families, and neighbors together to feel seen, supported, and less alone.
Theatre, music, and art-based workshops that give participants a creative outlet through diagnosis and recovery.
Performances and campaigns that fund direct support for families navigating the cost of a cancer journey.
Ways for performers, professionals, and neighbors to lend their time and talent to our mission.

Every event and workshop exists because of the people we serve. Here are a few of their stories.
Cues for Cancer harnesses the magic of the theater community and sends that positive energy to those who need it. From the first call for cues, I've seen how impactful the arts community can be for those impacted by cancer. They don't just “standby”, they “Go!”
Our community is stronger because of your leadership, advocacy, and dedication to uplifting others. We know your impact will continue to inspire future generations.
Volunteering with this organization changed how I see recovery — it's not just clinical, it's creative and communal.
