New England Theater 411
This is currently the most comprehensive and up-to-date list for auditions and
performances, covering community and professional theatre througout New England.
-
The Theater Mirror
Larry Stark's pioneering web site for the New England Theater community is
still active but it now focuses on editorials and reviews.
Alas, it became such a popular and trend-setting venue, that our dear "Dr. Stark"
has passed along the task of maintaining date-sensitive schedules and auditions
to NE Theater 411.
All the old columns, letters
reviews are still there, dating back to the Dark Ages of the Web! Thank you Larry,
for showing us that it could be done!
-
Vokes Theatrical
Neighbors
Eastern Massachusetts professional and community theater schedules.
All the schedules, all on one page! You'll have to rely on the links
for phone numbers and ticket information. Not all of these theaters have
links, but the schedules are as accurate and complete as we can make them.
-
New England Entertainment
Digest
NEED "is a magazine about real people, for real people, by real people".
But their phone is answered by a Dalmatian puppy named Tim. Lots of good
news and links.

links. Playbill On-Line also sponsors the web site for New York's famed Drama Book
Shop .

Similar to Playbill On-Line, but contains Broadway show information
only. Lots of photographs and a database of past Tony Award winners.

Service
Search their database of scripts (including a plot synopsis and number of

rights on-line.

Samuel French, Inc.
Still looking for that acting edition of that play?
If you didn't find it at Dramatists Play Service, it must be here.
