All tickets for the 2025/2026 season at Hartford Stage are now on sale. The Tony Award-winning theater in downtown Hartford announced the dynamic lineup earlier this year: the world premiere adaptation Rope, recent Broadway farce The Cottage, the classic American drama Death of a Salesman, modern comedy Native Gardens, Stephen Sondheim's Sweeney Todd presented in a historic partnership with TheaterWorks Hartford, and the beloved holiday tradition A Christmas Carol: A Ghost Story of Christmas.
“Our 2025/2026 season is a celebration of theatrical brilliance in all its forms,” says Artistic Director Melia Bensussen. “From the psychological tension of Rope to the terror and heart in Sweeney Todd, and the resounding emotional power of Death of a Salesman – these are powerful stories and timeless experiences I can't wait to share with our community.”
Managing Director Cynthia Rider adds: “Whether you're a returning subscriber or joining us for the first time, there's never been a better moment to experience Hartford Stage. Subscriptions remain the most flexible and affordable way to enjoy our theater—and we hope you will get out of your house and join us in ours. We look forward to welcoming everyone this season.”
Both single tickets and subscription packages are available at HartfordStage.org or by calling (860) 527-5151.
