Dear Friends of Hartford Stage:
Welcome back to Hartford Stage and our 22-23 Season!
We are thrilled to be opening this season with this production of The Mousetrap, celebrating its 70th anniversary, and welcoming back director Jackson Gay.
What is more fun than gathering together to hear a spine-chilling story? Perhaps a story that keeps us guessing, from beginning to end. We know it’s been a time of isolation for many, so we are grateful you are here with us to enjoy this very theatrical production.
In our beautiful thrust theater, there are many unexpected things around each corner — remember, anything and everything is a clue. You are with us inside Monkswell Manor, with a bevy of eccentric characters who have surprising stories to reveal.
Perhaps the only thing more surprising than a Whodunit, is the endless interesting journey of getting to know each other and our stories. For that Agatha Christie was a brilliant voice: enjoy this gem of her career, and be sure to keep all that you see here secret.
Enjoy the show!
