UVA Drama’s New Works Festival treats audiences to a varied collection of short works, ranging from drama to farce, that explore everything from workplace woes to matters of the heart. The pithy plays are written, directed, designed, and performed by students. Travel back in time to regency-era England in Becca Davis’ The Sapphire Hyacinth, follow along as a couple navigate a breakup in Mary Hall’s Running Out of Time, sit in on a PTA meeting at a private school in Abby Milne’s Karens, and more.
$5, 8pm. Helms Theatre, 109 Culbreth Rd. drama.virginia.edu
