Comment: Notable but needs more references. The theatre encyclopedia is a circular reference to the dutch Wikipedia. So it needs substantial secondary references. Give me a ping when your finished and I will mainspace it. Gbooks has many dozens of references to expand. Expand if you can and ping me. scope_creepTalk 11:34, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
