Lots of media is available

University Libraries provides streaming media (both audio and video) from several vendors. Below are some highlighted examples of what we provide with a focus on DEI titles. Please reach out to your liaison to discuss purchasing a specific title for classroom use. The Libraries can't license everything, but we try!

Digital Theatre+

Digital Theatre+ offers filmed full length productions, interviews, teaching materials, and reviews. The database is produced in London, and therefore provides largely British productions. The links below are examples of materials with DEI themes that are available.

Pipline by Dominique Morisseau
Dominique Morisseau's provocative play reveals the challenges faced by Black youths in the American education system as a public school teacher fights for her son’s future.

Captured live at the Lincoln Center's Mitzi E. Newhouse Theater in 2019 and interspersed with real-world clips, this acclaimed production shines a light on the school-to-prison pipeline.
Being Second Generation
4x45 is an innovative series of commissioned academic lectures and interviews, captured on film, providing a range of perspectives on a topic, theme or practitioner. Each volume, comprising four chapters, is hosted on Digital Theatre+ and published in print by Routledge.

In this conversation from Volume Three, ‘Performance and Migration’, multidisciplinary performer Sonya Suares and dancer-choreographer Raina Peterson compare stories of growing up as second-generation migrants in Australia, with an introduction by Paul Rae.

Peterson explores how their work draws on influences from Kerala dance style mohiniyattam, Hindu iconography and experimental queer contemporary performance, while Suares discusses her independent music theatre company ‘Watch This’ and championing diversity in live theatre.
