Mr. Robinson was lucky and blessed to have an archive of current and past videos, photos, written articles and stories regarding his work and that of both The Excaliber Shakespeare Company of Chicago and The Excaliber Shakespeare Company Los Angeles Archival Project to draw upon to create several theatre-related offerings for online use free of charge to the public and particularly students of The Theatre. Several appeared in the listings of Allevents.in.
Needless to say, Mr. Robinson was thrilled on May 9, 2022 when he received the news that for his online creative efforts he was one of numerous individuals and groups named as a winner of a 2022 Making The World Happening Award from Allevents.in.
Having been involved in The Performing Arts for 48 years, Darryl Maximilian Robinson knows that it is always an honor to be recognized for one's work. And he and The Excaliber Shakespeare Company Los Angeles Archival Project will continue their work.
