Greater Hartford Theater Week Arts & Culture
See what happens when the lights go down and a story takes over. Theater Week brings together new work, familiar favorites, artist conversations, and one-of-a-kind experiences across five Greater Hartford stages.
Explore More Than the Performance
Go beyond the performance and experience more of what makes live theater extraordinary. Hear from the artists, step behind the scenes, discover work taking the stage for the first time, and follow your curiosity from one stage to the next.
-
See how a production comes together before the curtain rises. Explore backstage spaces, scenery, rehearsal-room stories, and the creative work required to bring a performance to life.
-
Stay after the show or join a special conversation with actors, directors, playwrights, and other artists. Hear what shaped the work, ask questions, and keep the story going after the curtain call.
-
Theater Week is more than what happens on stage. Explore premieres, readings, workshops, immersive programs, and one-time experiences that give you a closer look at the creative process.
