Behind the Scenes

Spring/Summer 2021

Dear Reader,

Our collective hard work, patience, persistence and planning is coming together as we ALL look forward to touring productions, live concerts and gathering safely in groups again. The last year has proven how much we value shared experiences and human connection in our lives. Governor Baker’s announcement to end the state of emergency in Massachusetts on June 15, 2021 reassures us that we are on track for a full reopening of our theatre this fall.

We continue to be incredibly grateful for the support we’ve received and are working tirelessly to bring the best of Broadway, music, dance, family favorites and so much more back to Worcester in the safest ways possible. As you read through these pages, I hope that you are inspired by some of our community programs and just as excited to enjoy concerts, shows and the overall experience of returning to the theatre as we are.

This summer is bustling with activity as our Youth Acting Company and 2021 Youth Summer Program presents entertaining performances of Urinetown, Oklahoma! and Getting To Know…Oklahoma!. Outdoor performances include Jazz at Sunset as well as THT Rep’s production of Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar, free and open to the public this August.

Check out our upcoming events on page 5 and join us for an evening of serious fun, an afternoon of special memories or a whole season of adventure. Once again, we’re proud to say that there’s something for everyone at The Hanover Theatre and Conservatory for the Performing Arts.

See you at the theatre!

Lisa K. Condit, Vice President of Communications
