Daughters of Lorraine

From your friendly neighborhood Black feminists.

Co-hosted, co-produced, and created with Leticia Ridley, Daughters of Lorraine features conversations on Black theatre productions (mainly in the DC/Baltimore area), current national discussions around, within, and about Black theatre, Black theatre in the academy, recommendations on plays by Black playwrights and critical texts by Black scholars, and interviews with Black theatre artists. This podcast centers and privileges the narratives of Black theatre makers, scholars, and audiences while also underscoring the need for understanding and championing the influence of Black theatre on the American theatre landscape. Daughters of Lorraine is supported by HowlRound Theatre Commons and is available to listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Google Play.

Past guests include artists and scholars such as Tarell Alvin McCraney, Pearl Cleage, Dominique Morisseau, Hana Sharif, Addae Moon, Aleshea Harris, Whitney White, Jonathan McCory, and Lisa B. Thompson, among others.
