Thank you for making The 2025 Greater Hartford Shakespeare Festival one for the record books!
“King Lear” and “Twelfth Night” broke our prior records for overall festival attendance, and our final night broke our one-night record with over 450 Shakespeare lovers in the audience! The number of people who purchased tickets for both productions increased over last year. To quote a friend, "All's Well That Ends Well!"
It is incredibly gratifying to receive such support from the community we serve. We appreciate all of our foundations, business sponsors, and individual donors, as well as our cast, crew, board, volunteers, food vendors, and pre-show entertainers.
Although we have finished the 2025 Greater Hartford Shakespeare Festival in a high note, we still can use YOUR support as we plan to grow even more in 2026. Please consider making a tax-deductible gift to Capital Classics. As you can tell, your generosity will be put to good use in paying theatre professionals to create high-quality, affordable Shakespeare productions for everyone.
We are always looking committed volunteers who are passionate about our Greater Hartford Shakespeare Festival and want to assist our board of directors with projects like marketing, sponsorships, events, and more.
Give the gift of Shakespeare!
