“I have no doubt that HCT is what prepared me to work on feature films, as well as television. I learned how to conduct myself as a professional at an early age which has given me a competitive advantage.” - Jason Bush Currently works as Production Technician for Channel 61.
"HCT has helped me develop the qualities--those of loyalty, bravery, thoughtfulness, and creativity--that I most value in my character. I will always hold the memories of me as a little HCT aspiring actress, close to my heart." - Trisha Murphy (age 17)
“Being a part of HCT’s diverse and talented community has given me the ability to be a comfortable performer, but it has also given me the confidence to be an effective self-advocator and public speaker. My teachers at HCT challenged me to improve as an actor, while also strengthening my confidence. It is this community that has kept me a part of HCT through my childhood and into my teenage years.” - Luke Murphy (age 17)
“When I first came to the Hartford Children’s Theatre I was impressed with how professional and personal everyone was with all the students that go there. HCT has helped me with my passion as a performer and has sculpted me into a better actress.” - Jasmine Jefferson (age 17)
“HCT was my ‘home away from home’. It provided me with a safe and nurturing environment where I was free to explore not only my individuality, but also my passions for theatre, dance, and music.”
- Stephanie Simpson A graduate of Emerson College in Boston, MA where she created her own major combining Dance/Theatre, TV/Video production, and Marketing.
