About Us

In 1985, Steve Campo opened a small theater in downtown Hartford. Everything about it was new and uncomplicated from the price of a ticket to the ‘no jackets – no ties – flip flops if you dare – dress code. Steve was determined to ‘revolutionize’ the theater experience. TheaterWorks (as it’s eventually known) – is general admission only, first come, first served and most importantly produces the boldest repertory seen on Hartford stages. It’s downtown and it’s underground. It’s exciting and edgy and before too long, Steve strikes a deal to purchase the company a home. The historic 233 Pearl Street anchors TheaterWorks in the neighborhood and the community and confirms a ‘can do’ ethos and commitment to artistic integrity that follows the company to this day …TheaterWorks Now is TheaterWorks Hartford – more than 30+ years of producing award winning theater, rebranded and embracing the city we call home.
