Founded in 1935, Brownbrokers is a unique student organization that presents a full-scale student-written and student-directed musical each fall. The Brownbrokers show is traditionally performed in one of the department's theatres and is overseen by a producing board consisting of peer-elected students who have participated in past Brownbrokers productions.

Complete artistic control over a Brown Theatre production is a rare and exciting opportunity for students, as evidenced by award-winning playwright Alfred Uhry (Driving Miss Daisy, The Last Night Of Ballyhoo, Parade), who began his career as the author of two Brownbrokers shows in the mid-1950s, and more recently by EMMA, the nationally acclaimed 2000 Brownbrokers show that was reprised at The Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., winning the American College Theatre Festival's Best Musical Award.
