The Public Domain Players

The Public Domain Players (PDP) presents student-produced performances and bridges past and contemporary audiences through adaptation, emerging methodologies, and spectator-driven entertainment.

PDP creates collaborative environments that bring together graduate and undergraduate students from the University of California, Santa Barbara (UC Santa Barbara) and the surrounding community.

PDP is financially supported in part by the generosity of the Early Modern Center at UC Santa Barbara.

Upcoming Events

The Public Domain Players welcome individuals of all experience levels and backgrounds to participate in shows and projects as actors, production team members, and/or in administrative capacities.
