Launched in 2023, WATERWORKS celebrates new theatrical voices in Charlottesville and beyond! This festival of new works puts the playwright at center stage and diversifies the stories told on the Live Arts stage. The 2024 WATERWORKS festival will include our 2023 Emerging Artist Award-winners: AH WING AND THE AUTOMATON EAGLE by Brandon Zang | A steampunk alternate history retelling of the 1877 San Francisco Chinatown riot. THE COLOUR WOMAN by Petron Brown | A new play juggling with the intersecting themes of colorism, immigration, and Caribbean folklore. Next year’s festival will also feature LOCALLY SOURCED, a showcase of one-act plays developed by the Live Arts Playwrights’ Lab, and BLUE RIDGE MAMA, an original musical by Ti Ames. Plus readings, workshops, and much more to be announced!
