The Adelphi Theatre Calendar is a project of The London Stage 1800-1900: A Documentary Record and Calendar of Performances, founded by Joseph Donohue (University of Massachusetts Amherst) and James Ellis (Mount Holyoke College) in 1973 to organize and collect information about the variety of theatrical and theatre-related activities occurring in London over the course of the century.

The General Editors of the London Stage 1800-1900 selected the Adelphi Theatre for the first calendar as there were sufficient playbills and programs to produce a detailed record of theatrical activity. Subtitled "A Record of Dramatic Performances at a Leading Victorian Theatre",

There are two versions of The Adelphi Theatre Calendar, the Online version[1] and the 14 volume Book version.
