Using Start Your Research

A Note for Drama, Dance, & Theatre Students


Start Your Research can be helpful for finding up-to-date articles from newspapers about current and past Theater and Dance productions, plays, Choreographers, Actors, Directors, and more.

Remember, Start Your Research is not the only library database available to you

The new search platform does not search all of the databases we subscribe to and the original databases often have more search features, such as the ability to limit to methodology.

For more in-depth or complex research, please be sure to go to the databases listed in the Theater & Performing Arts database list, the Newspaper databases, and possibly the Art & Design and Literature and Language databases.
