'I want to show everybody that deaf actors like myself have the skills' - an actress from County Armagh says she wants to be a role model for deaf and hard-of-hearing people who are interested in the performing arts🎭.
By Matt FoxAn actress from County Armagh has said she wants to be a role model for deaf and hard-of-hearing people who are interested in the performing arts.
Two productions this weekend will incorporate hearing and deaf actors performing for an inclusive audience, using a mixture of speech, sign language and interpretation. "I would try on make-up and I would ask my mum to photograph me... I'm an only child, so that's why I kind of enjoyed playing alone creatively."
"We want to invite other people who are involved in other performance companies to come to see that deaf actors can do it, can provide a high quality of performance. They made the decision to collaborate on the project after applying for specialist funding from the Arts Council of Northern Ireland.
