Hart County Community Theatre in Hartwell, Hart County, United States | Theatre

Welcome to the Hart County Community Theatre, Hartwell, United States.
When the Junior Service League conceived the idea of staging a play in Hartwell they didn't realize how fertile the soil into which they sowed their seed. The play, "Come Blow Your Horn" by Neil Simon, received county-wide applause and generated the interest in many people to form a community Theatre. In 1979. The Hart County Community Theatre was born!
In October of 1985, two years and thousands of hours of labor later, the Hart County Community Theatre opened to a full house. The walls were unpainted, the stage was curtainless and the building was melting hot. But it was OUR building! A ceremony was held prior to the beginning of the play and the building and its purpose was blessed. A video tape of this ceremony was placed in the library. The facility was later painted Victorian rose and wine, heat and air were installed and a curtain was hung.
In addition, the Hart County Community Theatre (HCCT) has made the stage available for dance and literary exhibition. All proceeds are used for production costs and for building renovation / maintenance. All work is done on a volunteer basis. Included in this history are programs from almost all our plays. Reading through these will reveal the numbers of people in Hartwell who participated in Theatre.
Those individuals who have worked closely with the Community Theatre--whether it is in Hartwell or another town--have become aware of how Theatre cuts across social, socio-economic, and religious barriers. Being a part of a group composed of people from all walks of life who are working together to achieve a successful end is an education in itself.
It is the hope of this organization that HCCT will touch the lives of the young and inspire them at an early age to be participants rather than passive viewers. We feel Theatre improves communication skills, builds confidence and uncovers creative genius, both on the stage and behind the scenes.
