Press release

Matthew Dicks returns to TheaterWorks Hartford with New Solo Show:

SHOVEL
Written and Performed by Matthew Dicks
Directed by David Golder

Sunday, May 4 and Monday, May 5 at 7pm

TheaterWorks Hartford, under the direction of Artistic Director Rob Ruggiero and Managing Director Jeff Griffin, presents a new show by Matthew Dicks called SHOVEL. After 2023’s sold-out run of You’re a Monster Matthew Dicks, Matthew returns to TheaterWorks Hartford with a brand new solo show directed by David Golder that explores his lifelong desire to pick a fight, his failing attempts to quell that desire, and the battle over a high-quality beach shovel.

“I’m honored to be returning to TheaterWorks with this new show. It’s always fun to make people laugh while exposing the parts of you that most people prefer to keep hidden,” said Matthew Dicks, for We-ha.com.

“I’m thrilled to be directing this production at TheaterWorks Hartford,” Golder said. “It’s funny, engaging, thought provoking. Our goal is to craft a story that stays with you long after the curtain falls. In a good way.” (We-ha.com)

Tickets to SHOVEL by Matthew Dicks are $30 (fees not included). Performances take place on Sunday, May 4 and Monday, May 5 at 7pm at TheaterWorks Hartford, located at 233 Pearl St. Hartford. More information can be found at twhartford.org.
