This annotated bibliography cites works related to theatres, movie houses, opera houses, and dance facilities. It is divided into three parts: general references, theatre architecture, and cinema architecture. The part on general references includes bibliographies and periodicals. The second and main part of the guide, on theatre architecture, contains chapters devoted to general studies (broad or international in scope), classical Greece and Rome, the Middle Ages, Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Great Britain, Italy, Japan, Russia and the Soviet Union, the United States, and other countries. Chapter subsections cover general histories, the Renaissance and Baroque periods, the Restoration and eighteenth century, and the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The third part of the guide provides chapters relating to the cinema architecture of France, Germany, Great Britain, the United States, and other countries. Four indexes complete the guide: authors; architects, designers, consultants, and decorators; theatres and cinemas (listed geographically); and subjects. (RL)
