Theater Studies and Dance: Home

A guide to print and online resources available through the Yale University Library for drama, theater, dance, and the performing arts in general.

Welcome to Theater Studies at the Yale Arts Library!

This guide focuses on the many theater- and dance-related resources, in print and online, available via Yale University Library.

Most of the resources listed are subscription access only and thus limited to current Yale students, faculty, and staff. You must be connected to the Yale network on campus or via EZproxy or VPN--see Off-Campus Access for details. If you do not have a current Yale NetID, please visit the Arts Library in person.

Please contact me if I can help you with your research!
