CIRCUS FIRE by TheaterWorks Hartford
through May 31
The First Company Governor’s Foot Guard
It’s July 1944. With the nation at war and a heat wave settling over the city, the residents of Hartford, Connecticut eagerly await the arrival of the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus. The unthinkable occurs when a fire turns the big top into an inferno. In the minutes, hours and days following the blaze, two communities – Hartford and the Circus – find themselves irretrievably intertwined by tragedy, blame, heroism, and healing. This multimedia World Premiere honors the power of community in our 40th Season.
