General Comments
RICTA (Research In Contemporary Theatre Arts) is the initiative of Andrew Eglinton, a researcher in contemporary Japanese and British theatre. The site is set up on a 'shared knowledge' basis meaning that it aims to gather a wealth of information on theatre from its readers and other researchers or practioners. At the time of writing the site was still in its early days and was somewhat lacking in information. However, the layout and design is clear and concise, the ideas are sound, the motivation behind the site has a clear purpose and so I wouldn't be surprised that this becomes a very valuable resource for theatre students in the near future. Overall it is a highly commendable initiative.
