British Black and Asian Shakespeare Performance Database
The database, edited and principally compiled by Dr. Jami Rogers, contains the records of over 1100 productions of Shakespeare to which British black or Asian actors, directors and other production personnel have contributed. The database spans the time period of 1930 - 2015 and tracks casting patterns for ethnic minority performers. It contains information about the production, the media reaction to the BAME personnel's work within these productions, and lists the roles actors have played in the plays recorded. It provides a record of achievements and a statistical framework for analysing shifting professional opportunities over 85 years. The database is a major theatre history tool as well as having the ability to track casting policies from 1930 - 2015.

Life history interviews were also conducted with prominent Aleppine Armenian members of the Armenian community in Kuwait: the priest of the Armenian church in Aleppo, and two leading Syrian Armenian merchants who run successful businesses in Kuwait and play a prominent role in the Armenian community there.
