Free Lecture Series

To help give context to a Saturday matinee audience, we invite a university professor to speak on their area of expertise related to the themes of the play. These pre-show lectures are on the Saturdays of the opening week for all our mainspace productions.

Thank you to everyone who has helped to make our Free Lecture Series such a success.

Tarragon is pleased to announce will continue this initiative in our 2009/2010 season.
