Royal Shakespeare Company Archives 'FESTE' Database at the Shakespeare
Birthplace Trust

The PADS is pleased to announce that this exciting dataset is now
available at:

http://www.pads.ahds.ac.uk

The Shakespeare Birthplace Trust came into existence after the purchase
of Shakespeare's Birthplace in 1847 in order to preserve it as a
national monument. The Trust maintains a museum and library of books,
manuscripts and records of local historic interest with particular
reference to Shakespeare and includes the archive of the Royal
Shakespeare Company. The FESTE Database is a detailed record of all
performances of that company from 1865 to the present, including full
cast lists and bibliographic data relating to contemporary reviews.

The PADS would like to thank Susan Brock, Sylvia Morris and the team at
the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust for their help in preparing this
resource for delivery to users in UK Higher and Further Education.
