In honor of “the world’s greatest entertainer,” Get Happy! is an exciting and engaging evening of songs from American icon Judy Garland. Conceptualized, produced, and performed by lauded cabaret artist and UVA alumna Jenna Pastuszek, this cleverly curated collection of Garland’s greatest hits and hidden gems features music from The Wizard of Oz, Easter Parade, “The Judy Garland Show,” and others. More celebration than tribute, Pastuszek leaves imitation by the wayside as she weaves her own story throughout the musical homage. $15–40, times vary. Ruth Caplin Theatre, 109 Culbreth Rd. virginiatheatrefestival.org
