National Theatre Collection, Drama Online

Drama Online is a huge resource, developed in partnership by Bloomsbury and Faber and Faber, with a growing number of content partners including Nick Hern Books, the Arden Shakespeare, the Victoria and Albert Museum and Shakespeare's Globe. It hosts a vast amount of content with subscription packages for educational institutions by ‘collection’ – and the content ranges from video of theatre productions, to audio of the same, video workshops, play texts, and reference books on all aspects of drama: context & criticism, and theatre craft.

The scope of this review could never stretch to the full catalogue of material available on the website: effectively it is an online drama library. The latest ‘Collection’ to appear on the site, however, is the National Theatre Collection – drawing on a decade of streamed productions from the NT Live canon, never before available outside of the National Theatre's own archive. 30 productions available to stream include She Stoops to Conquer, Yerma, Othello, Macbeth, Frankenstein and Medea.
