Theatre Resources Directory Debuts Online
Stage Directions: The Theatre Resources Directory, Stage Directions’ annual directory of everything you need to create good theatre, is now online at trd.stage-directions.com. The Directory’s more than 1700 listings of manufacturers, distributors, retailers, repairers and trainers are now easily available to anyone with an internet connection. Since it’s online not only can users find what they need quickly and easily, but companies, schools, and theatres can easily add themselves to the database. Basic listings are absolutely free, and can be added at any time.

The new online directory certainly has the potential, if kept up to date and easy to use, to become an invaluable tool for theatre people everywhere. It seems to provide a considerably easier way for people in the business to connect to the resources they need as well as to one another, and all from the comfort of their own homes (or devices). There are a couple of ads per page, as can be seen from a brief venture onto the site, but they are a small price (so to speak) to pay for the free services that the Directory plans to offer.
It is just another example of the internet starting to live up to its full potential, and it will be interesting to see if this type of thing becomes more common or not.
