Is there any books available that is all about interior designing a performing arts theater or an Opera House?

I’m having a hard time to look for a book that is the same with my thesis topic.
I’d suggest doing a search using "WorldCat". It’s an online database that searches library records worldwide. Play around with your search words and see what you get. Seems there are a lot of books on the design of the Sydney (Australia) Opera House. A lot of other books and articles found when searching keywords "opera house" and "design". The "WorldCat" service is available through many university libraries. In case you don’t have access, here’s a few books I found:
Today’s culture facilities / Eduard Broto, 2006
Large multi-purpose halls for the performing arts : issues and concepts to consider before design / Kevin A. Kelly and James B. Gatton, 1985
Contemporary theater : evolution and design / Christos G. Athanasopulos, 1983
Theater design / by George C. Izenour ; with two essays on the room acoustics of multiple-use by Vern O. Knudsen and Robert B. Newman ; foreword by Alois M. Nagler, 1977
In addition to these, another useful source may be to do a search of dissertations and see if there has been any other research on your topic, then check their bibliographies.
