Brown University’s Department of Theatre Arts and Performance Studies offers a broad range of public lectures and talks, as well as a variety of community classes and workshops. Most of these events are offered to the public for free. These events are complimented by a full theatre production season, selected by the Sock & Buskin board, a group comprised of undergraduate students along with members of the TAPS faculty and staff.
