Hello, and welcome to WikiProject Theatre!

Thank you for adding your name to our project membership list! Our goal is to make Wikipedia the finest, most comprehensive resource of theatre topics available online. As a project member, you might like to introduce yourself on our talk page and maybe add the project membership userbox to your user page.

If you haven't done so already, please add our main project page to your watchlist and browse our page of useful templates. When you have a moment, please take some time to review our article structure guidelines for theatre articles, which give a handy guide to sections you should try to include in articles about theatre. If you would like suggestions about where to start, we've gathered a few suggestions in the Project to do list.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask on the project talk page or on my talk page. Again, welcome and happy editing!
