If you have ever attended a production at the Hartford Stage Company you know how
fortunate Connecticut is to have this theatrical gem. The Hartford Stage Company is one of the
most acclaimed regional theaters in the country. It has hosted world premiers of several plays
that have gone on to be huge successes on Broadway, including Anastasia, Marvin’s Room, and
A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder. Now you will have an opportunity to go behind the
scenes and see how it is all done.
 
On May 14, 2025 at 6:30 p.m., the MIT Club of Hartford and New London will host a
behind the scenes tour of the Hartford Stage Company. We will see everything that goes into a
production, including set design and construction, lighting, props, costuming, and much more.
The tour will be conducted by the Hartford Stage Company staff. We are currently waiting on
word to see if Melia Bensussen, Artistic Director of the Hartford Stage Company, will join us.
Following the tour the Club will host a reception with light snacks in the theater’s upper lobby.
This is one event you surely do not want to miss. The price for this event is $18.00 for Club
members and $22.00 for non-members.

East Meets West, Then and Now: Learning from the Legacies of Transpacific Families

MIT Chinese Alumni Group

Wednesday, May 21, 7:00pm - 8:00pm (America/New_York)

More Info & RSVP

Event Details

Register to participate in a live interactive event with Emma Teng, Professor of Asian Civilizations at MIT.
 
Prof. Teng will share her research on transpacific mixed families and take questions from alumni.
 
In an earlier era of globalization, growing US-China trade, missionary endeavors, transpacific educational exchanges and migration led to the formation of mixed Chinese-Western families, challenging taboos against interracial marriage at the time. Yet, their histories have often been hidden in service to these taboos. What lessons can we learn from the hidden histories of transpacific mixed families and their lived experiences in the US, China and Hong Kong bridging cultural and national differences?
 
Moderator: Humphrey Chen '90, MIT Chinese Alumni Group
 
About the Speaker
 
Emma J. Teng is the T.T. and Wei Fong Chao Professor of Asian Civilizations at MIT. She is the author of Taiwan's Imagined Geography: Chinese Colonial Travel Writing and Pictures, 1683-1895 (2004) and Eurasian: Mixed Identities in the United States, China and Hong Kong, 1842-1943 (2013).
