The NZTA Database

The New Zealand Theatre Archive Database

	is a National Register of New Zealand theatre collections held by theatre organisations, people, companies, venues, libraries, archives, museums, and historical societies
	is maintained at the New Zealand Theatre Archive office, situated in the Theatre programme of Victoria University of Wellington’s School of English, Film and Theatre
	lists more than 350 New Zealand theatre collections and provides information on where they are held and how they can be accessed
	development is currently underway to provide online access via the Nola Millar Library

Database update project

We are currently updating data on the register, and contacting all persons or groups to enquire if there has been any change to their holdings. If we have not yet been in touch, or you are not listed on our register, we would be pleased to hear from you so we can add your theatre or drama records to our database. For further information on how to do this contact the NZ Theatre Archive.

Searching the Database

Currently access to the database is available Victoria University of Wellington (by prior arrangement with the New Zealand Theatre Archive), and the Nola Millar Library in Te Whaea National Dance and Drama Centre. For information from the database or for appointments to view the database, contact the NZ Theatre Archive.

Records from the NZ Theatre Archive database have also been contributed to the National Register of Archives and Manuscripts (NRAM).

Database online at the Nola Millar Library

An agreement has been signed between the NZ Theatre Archive and the Nola Millar Library for the database to be hosted and made available online in late 2009. Development for this is currently underway.
