Comedian Jade Catta-Preta returns to her hometown for an evening of late-night laughs. The Charlottesville-raised comic will deliver her first local stand-up performances at Live Arts Theater and Common House as part of Live Arts’ Waterworks Festival, a month-long celebration of new and emerging theatrical voices. Catta-Preta currently hosts Hulu’s “Hotties,” a dating-food-comedy show where contestants on blind dates endure spicy food challenges, compete to make the best dish, and hopefully, fall in love along the way.
Saturday 5/20. $10–30, 8:30 and 10:30pm. Locations vary. livearts.org

If this kind of local, independent journalism matters to you, help keep it going. It costs $26,245 a week—$2.23 weekly per copy, or roughly $9.50 monthly per copy—to produce C-VILLE Weekly, including writers, designers, printing, and overhead. We suggest a recurring gift of $10 per month to help cover production costs, but any amount adds up to revenue we can count on. Click to give.
