The Theatre Functionaries index lists all non-acting personnel by position and also by decade. The positions are alphabetized from acting managers to wig makers. The Index of Theatre Management and Functionaries lists all non-acting people alphabetically. Each name is followed by a function and date. In the Authors, Composers, and Titles index, the basic entry is the author's name.
Titles are cross-referenced to author, composer, adapter, translator, or choreographer.
In the case of pieces whose author has not been found, the listing is by title and date of performance. All dates given are dates of performance. The Actors and Actresses index contains the names of all actors and actresses appearing in the bills. An attempt has been made to regularize names and amplify them. It is not possible to individualize all the Smiths and Joneses who played at the Adelphi, but in the case of less common names initials and first names can occasionally be supplied.
