From the glow of stadium lights to the roar of the crowd, game days at the University are full of sound, color and motion. The marching band energizes the audience with its pregame show as Scott Stadium comes alive with fans pouring in before kickoff. And at the center of the band are the feature twirlers, sparkling in their sequin uniforms and tossing their batons high into the air.

In this week’s From the Archives, we examine articles and reviews of theatrical productions on Grounds. Theater has long been foundational to the artistic identity of the University, with the variability of productions evidencing new ideas and values for their decades’ respective student bodies. The articles and reviews selected report on productions of Greek dramas, 17th-century French period pieces and adaptations of popular American novels.1950sOct. 6, 1951“Rotunda Stagers to Present ‘Electra’The Rotunda Stagers’ were set to open their season with “Electra”, the second Greek classic to be performed by the group since their founding the prior year. The cast was composed of actors from varying corners of the University, from librarians to drama majors to instructors’ wives, and also included local high school students and Charlottesville residents. 1960sOct. 6, 1960“Players Award Leading Role To John Rodenbeck; First Play, ‘Look Homeward Angel’, To Open Oct. 24”By Ed BlackerThis article revealed that Ketti Frings' dramatization of Thomas Wolfe's novel, Look Homeward, Angel, would soon be performed by the Virginia Players. Wolfe's autobiographical stand-in, Eugene, is the focus of the play, which also examines his tumultuous North Carolina family life. The article gives information about the play's setting, themes of ambition, nostalgia and family strife, as well as a list of the main actors and production team. 1970sOct. 12, 1976“Musical fairy tale christens Virginia Players’ season”By Patti HartigantThe Virginia Players’ opening production of Once Upon a Mattress was an evening of light-hearted fun that allowed its audience to embrace their inner child. While Anne Marshall’s portrayal of Princess Winifred had some technique issues and the choreography of several numbers was lacking, this review appreciates that the production “does not attempt to be anything else but a relaxing, good time.” 1980sOct. 10, 1983“Techniques detract from ‘Miser’”By Nesita KwanCartoon by Marcia HillisThis review evaluates Joseph Shaver's direction of the Virginia Players' staging of Molière's The Miser. Kwan contended that Shaver's theatrical innovations, such as adding Louis XIV's court as an extra "audience," detract from the plot, even though the play successfully parodies the avarice and vanity of 17th-century society. Although Ronald Scott Fry gave a powerful performance as Harpagon, the production's overall impact was diminished by its experimental techniques.1990sOct. 10, 1996“‘Chicago’ blows through Culbreth Theater”By James SeolPhotos by John MillerA production of ‘Chicago’ opened at Culbreth Theater, receiving a less than stellar review from this critic. While the supporting actors, set, and costumes were excellent, the author of this piece noted that the production lacked energy and, like the Broadway production, fell short in the music department. Unlike the Broadway production, which was saved by Bob Fosse’s “electrifying choreography”, this production’s choreography was “minimal and trite.”2000sOct. 10, 2000“‘Skin’ displays impressive body of work”By Doug BrantnerPhotos courtesy of the Department of DramaThis review highlights the cast's dynamic performances and the ambitious scope of the Virginia Players' production of Thornton Wilder's The Skin of Our Teeth. Brantner emphasizes the play's clever staging, powerful performances, and its fusion of humor and philosophical contemplation on rebirth and survival.

After months of doing their darndest to violently dismantle the fundamental pillars of higher education, the Trump administration has decided they now want cooperation — or rather, coercion under the mask of cooperation. But like I found out at the county fair last summer, putting lipstick on a pig does not make it cuter.

Since 2002, the University’s School of Law has operated under a self-sufficient funding model, declining state support while remaining a public institution. And while that tuition is comparable to other law schools with similar prestige, some pre-law students say that approach may create a barrier to affordability at the Commonwealth’s premier law school.

Volleyball is a sport where no singular play or player usually shines. In such a high-scoring game, almost every point carries equal weight. While offensive hitters often bask in the limelight after electric kills, so too can defensive specialists with heroic dives to save the ball.

When fans crashed onto the field Sept. 26 after Virginia upset No. 8 Florida State, most of them came from the Hill. It is Scott Stadium’s signature student section and, uniquely, is without a barrier between the fans and the field, allowing for the rabid speed of the field storm.

In overtime Saturday at Louisville, Virginia forced a field goal and just needed to score to win the game. In key moments throughout the season, they have seen success like against Florida State but also failure like against NC State.

The federal government entered a shutdown at 12:01 a.m. Wednesday, and the University may be subject to the repercussions of this shutdown in the coming days or weeks.
