Leaders in Focus
These intimate gatherings are a great way to stay connected to the incredible organizations and leaders in our community

LGH invites you to join us for the first Leaders in Focus event of the season featuring Jacques Lamarre, Connecticut playwright and writer of the new world premiere production Circus Fire, produced by TheaterWorks Hartford.
During this special event, Jacques Lamarre will share insights into his creative journey, the inspiration behind Circus Fire, and the role storytelling and the arts play in shaping community and culture.
Following the conversation, attendees will have the option to attend the evening performance of Circus Fire at the historic First Company Governor's Foot Guard in downtown Hartford.
This event is a unique opportunity to connect with fellow leaders, engage with Hartford’s vibrant arts community, and hear directly from one of Connecticut’s most accomplished playwrights.
