The sheer scope of talented actors living in Hartford is nothing less than amazing. These artists with a theatrical flair have consistently contributed their talents to the productions put on by the Hartford Stage, the city's local theater company. The group presents six major shows and one to two summer productions every year, so there are plenty of opportunities to see some exciting local theater entertainment. And, their artistic range is just as impressive as their talent, as the group skillfully presents everything from the offbeat to the classic.
