Also on April 1, at 5 p.m., Hartford Stage will take to Zoom for "Scene and Heard Live!," billed as "one night, four artistic directors, 40 years of Hartford Stage." It's an online "cocktail party" hosted by Hartford Stage's new artistic director Melia Bensussen, featuring the three people who preceded her in that position: Darko Tresnjak (who served from 2011 until last year), Michael Wilson (1998-2011) and Mark Lamos (1980-1997).

Those interested in seeing the event can click for an RSVP form on the Hartford Stage website to receive the Zoom invite.

Playhouse on Park co-founder Sean Harris will host "Shoot the Sh*t with Sean" series of four weekly chats Saturdays at 11 a.m., starting April 4 on the theater's Facebook page. It's an interactive discussion where Harris can answer questions live, with a different topic each week. The inaugural April 4 episode focuses on "A Theater's Identity (And How That Determines Everything)."
