Your Favorite Play About a Circus Fire is Coming Back!
Join Us For a Five-Year Anniversary Reading to Benefit Our New Season
Five years after its nomination for the coveted Fringe First Award at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, We Can't Reach You, Hartford is finally getting its New York City premier in a one-night-only reading.
The Assembly’s first original play as a company, We Can't Reach You, Hartford investigated one of history’s forgotten disasters: the tragic and mysterious burning of the Ringling Bros.' Circus, in Hartford, CT during the summer of 1944. Our first foray into devised theater created a history—part real, part imagined —from the fragments of fact and fantasy that remained after the big top went down.
After the breakout success of last summer's home/sick, we are delighted by this opportunity to return to the production that started it all. So whatever this reading will be for you—a trip down memory lane to a more innocent time before everyone moved to Brooklyn, or your chance to finally understand why all members of The Assembly have an inexplicable fear of clowns—we’d love to see you there.
