Theatre/Performance Studies: Periodicals (Print & Online)

Introduction

 

Databases, listed on the right, will lead you to literary, peer-reviewed journals. Please note that articles published in peer-reviewed journals are reviewed by experts and rigorously vetted before publication. Non-peer reviewed journals, such as the ones found on magazine racks of large booksellers or published on Google, are not peer-reviewed. 

Access to peer-reviewed materials is possible only through academic affiliation; i.e.,undergrauates, graduates, and faculty.
