One site that appears to provide something close to one-stop shopping is Justin's Theatre Links, an extremely rich resource, organised by subject, period, and genre.
The
Voice of the Shuttle, Drama Theater and Performance Art Studies section
provides a mix of links for theatre history, modern theatre,
performance practice, and other related topics.
Two interesting costume resources are:
online colour
plates from the 19th century German work The History of Costume by
Braun and Schneider and The Elizabethan Costuming Page
For classical drama in performance, visit Didaskalia: Ancient Theatre
Today. This page is dedicated to information about modern
performances of Greek and Roman drama, dance, and music.
Theatron looks
like it will be a rich guide to online architechtural and textual
resources for European theatre history. Access to some parts of the
site is by subscription -- this resource is partly funded by the
European Union.
Sometimes sites which began as teaching resources for students in a particular course turn out to have a broader range of interest. Here are some useful student-oriented resources --
The Medieval English Play Cycles. The title is self-explanatory here!
Stephen Reimer's Course Notes on Medieval and Early Modern Manuscript Studies.
Baragona's Medieval Drama Page was designed for students in mediaeval drama courses at VMI, but will interest others as well.
