“Reverberation” is by Lopez (“Somewhere,” “The Whipping Man”) and is directed by Maxwell Williams. It will run Feb. 19 to March 15.

The play, which Hartford Stage commissioned, is described: “After a personal tragedy, Jonathan has withdrawn from the world, with little social life beyond the men he meets online. When charming, flighty Claire moves into the apartment upstairs, she tries to coax him out of his shell. They forge a tenuous connection, but the past reverberates into the present, threatening what happiness they’ve found.”

Because of adult themes, language, violence, the production is recommended for those 18 and above.
