The Hartt School/Hartford Stage Partnership in Training
Michael Wilson, Artistic Director of Hartford Stage
Students have the opportunity to participate in activities with Hartford Stage which may include roles or understudying in their productions. A variety of master classes and workshops are also a feature of this important collaboration.
The Hartt School/Goodspeed Musicals Residency
Michael Price, Artistic Director of Goodspeed Musicals
 While Hartt Theatre Division students have participated in Goodspeed productions almost from the inception of the program, the 2005-2006 academic year marked the official launching of this cooperative venture. Senior music theatre students will be in residence at Goodspeed Musicals and participate in the development of new works with established music theatre writing teams.
Working with Playwrights - The Theatre Division strongly emphasizes the development of new plays and musicals. Each spring, the New Plays Festival is held, giving students the chance to work on several new works. Students work with the playwright, helping to give shape to the new work. elanie Marnich.
