The Motherf----r with the Hat
AMERICAN REGIONAL THEATER PREMIERE
By Stephen Adly Guirgis • Directed by Tazewell Thompson
October 14 through December 4, 2011
The Motherf----r with the Hat is a high-octane, verbal cage match about love, drugs… and misplaced haberdashery(!)

By Philip Hayes Dean • Directed by Tazewell Thompson
January 20 through February 26, 2012
Set in South Side Chicago in the late 1950's, this rich family drama looks back at a world that is changing and ahead towards greater change still to come.

RED
WINNER OF THE TONY AWARD FOR BEST PLAY
By John Logan • Directed by Tazewell Thompson
March 23 through May 6, 2012
Expressionist Mark Rothko has just landed the biggest commission in the history of modern art - murals for the Four Seasons Restaurant.  But, amazingly, he faces the possibility that his crowning achievement could become his undoing. 

Time Stands Still
By Pulitzer Prize Winner, Donald Margulies • Directed by Rob Ruggiero
June 1 through July 15, 2012
Sarah and James are a photojournalist and a foreign correspondent trying to find happiness in a world gone crazy.  But when their own story takes a sudden turn, the adventurous couple confronts the prospect of an altogether different life.  “Donald Margulies’ finest play since Dinner with Friends.” - The New York Times

Reasons To Be Pretty
By Neil LaBute • Directed by Rob Ruggiero
August 10 through September 30, 2012
 “The best new Broadway play of the season” (Time Magazine) comes from the most incisive referee of the battle of the sexes.  Four friends confront a sea of deceit and infidelity as they try to answer that oh-so-American question - how much is “pretty” worth?  “A slam-dunk!” - Show Business Weekly

Change is good. Productions, dates, artists (everything!) subject to change. Refunds do not occur.

 

 
     


   


 
   

   
 
ve a totally new experience when you visit TheaterWorks! We are still Hartford's home for the latest dramas, comedies and musicals that are usually sold-out in New York, Chicago, and London - not in a huge, impersonal venue - but in a gem-like 200 seat theater where the farthest seat is only eight rows from the stage. You can still see major stars from Broadway, film and television in a setting this intimate. But, whether you are a long-time friend of TheaterWorks or a first-time visitor, your trip to City Arts on Pearl is now a feast for your eyes and tastebuds. Arrive early or stay after the show and enjoy masterworks from the New Britain Museum of American Art in our new Gallery of American Art and indulge in wines and cuisine in bistro233, our new gallery cafe.  Please join us for downtown Hartford's newest destination for the hottest in theater, art, and more!
