[Heather McC · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is one encyclopedia that is worth checking out and rereading again. Rather than take the 'cover-to-cover' approach, I dug right into the index and cross references to find some of my favorite entertainers and places. While not everyone in theatre history is included with their own section, all of the cross-references and name dropping make the book very thorough.
