A play to be performed at James Madison University on Tuesday hopes to inspire conversations on topics like depression and suicide. In partnership with Sentara, the Norfolk-based Virginia Stage Company will perform the one-man play “Every Brilliant Thing” at 5:30 p.m. in the Hall of Presidents on the third floor of D-Hall as part of its traveling tour.
The Virginia Stage Company, in partnership with the American Red Cross, invites the community to participate in a life-saving Blood Drive on September 17, 2024, from 1:00 pm to 6:00 pm at the Main Lobby of the Wells Theatre, located at 108 E. Tazewell Street, Norfolk, VA 23510.
Blood donors will not only have the chance to give the gift of life, but they’ll also receive an exclusive Red Cross Raglan shirt as a thank-you for their generosity. In addition, as a special offer, Virginia Stage Company will provide all blood drive participants with a 20% discount on tickets to any upcoming performance of Dracula, A Feminist Revenge Fantasy, Really.
"We are thrilled to collaborate with the American Red Cross on such an important event," said Jordan Setzer, Director of Enrichment at Virginia Stage Company. "This is a fantastic opportunity to support our community while also enjoying some great live theater."

As we navigate the complex social and political landscape of 2024, it’s striking to see how many issues echo the post-World War II era. The post-WWII period was marked by a search for stability and identity in a world reshaped by conflict, leading to significant advancements in civil rights, gender equality, and international relations.
