What Digital Theatre+ is
Digital Theatre+ is an education platform connecting English and Drama students with dramatic texts, poetry, performances, and curriculum-aligned learning materials. Its library lists more than 600 productions, 800 video resources, and 21,000 pages of written resources. Materials include workshops, interviews, analysis, essays, guides, and lesson plans. Classroom tools and admin analytics are available, and institutions can use Content Controls to manage which resources students can access and adjust restrictions. The service is commonly licensed institution-wide for staff and students. Authentication can use SAML 2 single sign-on or accounts with an email address and password. Subscriptions include tailored onboarding and ongoing support from a dedicated Customer Success Manager, including training and refresher sessions. Users access the service in a web browser; supported current systems include Windows, macOS, iOS/iPadOS, and Android. Linux is expected to work but is untested. Digital Theatre+ does not currently provide LTI integrations, though users can link to or iframe content in some learning management systems. Institutional pricing is available on request. The company says DT+ is used in almost 4,000 schools, colleges, and universities across more than 90 countries.
