The Virginia Theatre Festival keeps rolling with The Heart Sellers, a deeply moving play by Pulitzer Prize finalist Lloyd Suh. Set in 1973 in the wake of the Hart–Celler Act’s abolition of immigration quotas in America, two 20-something immigrant women meet by chance in a grocery store on Thanksgiving night. The women spend an evening bonding over what they’ve left behind, and the exciting possibilities that lie ahead in a new country.
Friday 7/11 through Sunday 7/20
$15–40, times vary. Helms Theatre, 109 Culbreth Rd. virginiatheatrefestival.org
