JPARC is an online resource center for research on and the study of the performing arts of Japan. The site includes sections for the analysis of certain topics (Research Modules), multimedia articles (Learning Modules), and reference materials such as glossaries, bibliographies, browsing indexes, and timelines. Modules are collections of Web pages devoted to a specific topic such as important threatical figures or readings and productions of a single piece.

Currently Updated Sections

All sections in JPARC use materials from the Global Performing Arts Database (GloPAD), a multilingual, Web-accessible database of media and information on the performing arts. Follow links to view records for individual images, videos, piece or person names, or production records on the GloPAD public interface.

All sections on JPARC can be reached using the menu on the sidebar to the left.

If you are new to this Resource Center, but remember a different JPARC Web site, you may be thinking of the old JPARC that looked like below. Most materials from the old JPARC have been incorporated into this new portal.
