2024's Best History

Find the top History websites and businesses with reviews and ratings.

Theatrical history is a fascinating topic and covers everything from traditional British pantomimes and puppet shows like Punch and Judy to Elizabethan theatre, mystery plays and music hall. Many regional theatres have collected archives of playbills, programmes and posters, some featuring well known actors before they became famous. The history of theatre also attracts serious academic study with colleges offering degrees in the subject.
