The CRLT funding achieved its goals and reached a large number of individuals in classrooms, on campus, and within international communities. 1) Faculty diversity training: Consultation with the CRLT staff, the Theatre Department Chair determined that it would be more beneficial to work with the CRLT on faculty workshops than to contract the CRLT players. We decided that Theatre Department faculty would be more responsive to dialogue and discussion than a theatrical presentation. With grant funding, we were able to arrange three planning meetings with CRLT staff members with the goal of developing workshops for a faculty Fall 2014 retreat. The Theatre Department held two days of diversity workshops (September 12 and 13, 2014) in partnership with the CRLT. During follow up discussions in November, faculty members discussed inclusive learning strategies they incorporated into their classrooms. About 35 faculty and staff members participated in this process. 2) Faculty integration into the GIEU Liverpool program: Theatre and Drama professor Gillian Eaton traveled with Professor Anita Gonzalez to Liverpool UK during Summer 2014 to work with 14 students on residency activities with multicultural community organizations. While in Liverpool, students volunteered (in teams of 2 or 3) with 6 different organizations: Merseyside Dance Initiative, The Green House Project, The Somali Women’s Project, The Black E, The Brouhaha Carnival, and Africa Oye. At the end of their residencies they wrote and performed a play at the Lantern Theatre about their experiences that reached a Liverpool audience of about 120 people. The performance can be viewed on youtube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qOxHbbkXUac) and has 92 hits. The students also performed the play in the Kresge theatre of the Residential College to an audience of about 40 people in September 2014. 3) Guest artist residencies: The CRLT grant supported the residency of three international guest artists who interacted with a cross section of LSA and SMTD students. - Jonathan Man Jonathan Man a professional Chinese play director from London was in residence for three weeks during Fall 2014. During his stay at the University of Michigan he gave two talks in THTREMUS 222 Introduction to Global Theatre and Ethnic Studies and THTREMUS 325 Contemporary American Drama reaching a total of about 60 students. In addition, he worked closely with 12 LSA students on the staging and public performance of the play Ching Chong Chinaman; about 40 audience members attended the reading. He also gave a lecture at the Confucius Institute that reached an audience of about 75 people. The artist stayed in the Alice Lloyd residence hall and offered workshops about British and Asian drama to about 15 of the student residents. The total university outreach was to about 200 individuals. - Antonio Lyons and Refilwe Nkomo 2 performing artists from South Africa and New York City were in residence for 4 weeks during the Winter 2015 semester. They stayed for the entire month of February offering 4 workshops and 3 performances, including a performance at the Cass Center in Detroit. They gave workshops in RCHUM Theatre for Incarceration class (20 students), THTREMUS 233 Modern Rituals/Traditional Practices class (20 students) and for the Semester in Detroit class. In addition, the two artists organized a poetry jazz café in the Alice Lloyd residency hall on two Saturday afternoons that reached about 30 students. Finally, they gave three performances. Antonio Lyons performed in the Trotter Multicultural Center on February 27 and in Detroit on February 19. Refilwe Nkomo performed in the Department of African and African American Studies in a presentation about women and rape. The total for audiences attending the shows was about 75 people.
