Ranging from hilariously awkward to wryly introspective, the works featured true-to-life dialogue and plenty of colorful characters. Sara L. Wright ’09 opened the festival with a play entitled “The Late Mr. Crawford.” Wright was greeted with thundering applause and warm hugs from teachers and friends. “This is one of the most supportive environments,” Wright said...
