UVA Acts

UVA Acts is excited to be hiring new ensemble members.

There are many ways to get involved with UVA Acts. You can audition to be in an ensemble, attend a public performance, or book a performance for your colleagues. 

You can also sign up for our newsletter to be kept up-to-date on our latest projects and opportunities to be a part of the development process. We pilot all of our programs with small audiences before they launch, and we'd love for you to be a part of giving us feedback. Signing up for the newsletter will guarantee that you'll hear about opportunities like pilot performances and open rehearsals in the future.

3x3 Process

3x3s were created to disrupt monolithic understandings of communities at UVA and to provide online opportunities for learning among instructors.

Professional playwrights worked with members of the UVA community--including staff, students, and faculty-- to generate short, fictionalized monologues. The monologues were then workshopped in collaboration with an actor, who offered their personal insights and artistry to the process.

Inclusive teaching practices to consider.

UVA Acts programming is designed to tour to departments, schools, and professional group. We want the conversations and ideas that are generated during our performances to continue long after we leave, and this happens easily when audience members are already connected and collaborating. Follow the steps below to start the process of bringing UVA Acts to your colleagues and peers. 

UVA Acts will promote their Fall 2023 programming open to the entire UVA community soon. If you'd like to arrange a private workshop for your team/ department/ school, review our existing programs and contact uvaacts@virginia.edu for more information.
