Hartt Students Join Cast of Hartford Stage's Twelfth Night

Five Hartt School students will be appearing in Hartford Stage's upcoming production of William Shakespeare's Twelfth Night.

The Hartt students who will be performing in the Hartford Stage production  are senior theatre/actor training majors Josh Boscarino '13 and Will Macke '13, and sophomore dance majors Arielle Soloman '15, Katie Schenker '15, and Celina Lopez '15.

Hartford Stage's production of Twelfth Night, under the leadership of Artistic Director Darko Tresnjak and Managing Director Michael Stotts, will be performed from May 18 through June 16.  The production is part of "Shakespeare for a New Generation," a program of the National Endowment for the Arts in partnership with Arts Midwest.

The Bard's finest comedy is a paean to the restorative power of love.  Viola, the shipwrecked heroine, lands on the shore of Illyria, and disguised as a page, Cesario, searches for her lost brother. Countess Olivia mourns the loss of her own brother. When the lovely Countess meets the handsome young page, desire banishes grief in this intoxicating comedy.
