Start your theatre arts research here!

Whether you're a freshman theatre major or an senior student working on your capstone, the O'Grady Library has the resources you need.

For the quality resources your professors expect you to use, start here. And do not hesitate to ask for help if we can be of service. All the librarians are happy to help at any time, but Kirsti Thomas (see the box to the right) is the performing arts librarian.

Literature Resource Center

  • Literature Resource Center
    Excellent resource for researching specific playwrights. You'll find complete lists of plays, biographical information, and literary analysis of the author's works.

Who's who and what's what

These resources can tell you who the big names are in theatre-- both on stage and behind the curtain-- provide a history of theatre in different places and times, and give you an overview of theatre and the dramatic arts.
