Finding Newspaper Articles for Theatre

You can find some newspaper articles using OneSearch Links to an external site., but I recommend you use newspaper-specific databases.

Say you wanted to find an early review of Twilight by Anna Deavere Smith.
You can search in the Historical Los Angeles Times and here is an example of a result:

From here, you might want to research the author of the review, Richard Stayton. You can also compare this review to those from other newspapers. Make sure, whether you are looking for newspaper articles or magazines or books, that you NEVER pay for content. If your instructor recommends an article and you are asked to pay, try to find it through the library and if you do not find it, contact a librarian.
