The Schaffer TheatreTalk series offers pre-performance arts discussions to
ticket buyers free of charge. The discussions are delivered by professional
teaching artist and/or Company artist to engage patrons in a unique forum
for learning about a specific performance. Audience members are encouraged
to ask questions about the artists, repertoire and performance, creating a
dynamic interaction geared toward increasing awareness about the Arts.
Schaffer TheatreTalks take place in Robb Alley at Proctors.
Sponsored by the Times Union and named in honor a gift from the H. Schaffer
Foundation.
