Internet/Bitnet Theatre Resources

[kenneth mccoy]

Fellow Theatre netters,
 
As promised, I am posting the list of Electronic Resources for Theatre and
Performance Studies I've been working on. If anyone has *other* resources
they know about, please let me know.
 
I have subscribed or otherwise investigated each group; to my knowledge,
they are still active (although I can't seem to get through to
STAGECRAFT).
 
One more thing: if you decide to subscribe to a listserv, remember to send
your message to the *listserv* and NOT to the list itself.
 
Cheers,
