LMDA Newsletters: Canada and the United States

In addition to the LMDA Review, which began as a newsletter, LMDA and LMDA Canada have over the years published newsletters under various names other than the Review. You will find these publications below. If you notice gaps in our collection, and have access to material to fill that gap, please contact Professor Sara Freeman (sfreeman@pugetsound.edu) or Professor Emeritus Geoff Proehl (gproehl@pugetsound.edu) of the University of Puget Sound.

The Archive wishes to thank Brian Quirt for collecting and forwarding the LMDA Canada Newsletters, and to all the editors and authors who have made these publications possible, with particular appreciation to Jeremy Stoller. Owing to the somewhat occasional nature of the publications, Identification by date, volume, or number is not always consistent. Finally, our ongoing appreciation to Lori Ricigliano (Retired Associate Director of User Services and Theatre Liaison Librarian, University of Puget Sound) for her many hours of commitment to this archive and the art of dramaturgy.
