This guide lists resources on student theatre at Webster available in the Webster University Archives. Please see the research guides designed for the Conservatory for resources on topics such as theatre in general, costume, wig and makeup, text analysis, scenic design, etc.
The Repertory Theatre of St. Louis was operated by Webster University from 1966-1970 and the university archives has selected materials about the company from that time period. Please contact the Rep for information about its history as an independent organization.

Please call the University Archivist (contact details in the left-hand column) to discuss your research topic and to arrange an initial visit to the archives. Due to the limited staff available to assist with archival research, we ask that you call first rather than come by unannounced. Archival materials are kept in special storage rooms and only small quantities may be brought out for research use at any one time. Additional visits may be required depending on the quantity of material you need to use. All materials must be used in the library during hours specified by the University Archivist.
