We’re incredibly disappointed that the Government hasn’t listened to the voice of the arts sector and has pressed ahead with the damaging proposals to cut Higher Education arts courses funding. You can read our full statement here: bit.ly/3eGZ4xC
Saw @bloodyelle_ this w/e. Bloody marvellous show and production. @laurynredding is totally captivating from the outset & BSL interpreter @HerLadyShiv was on point! A skilled and sensitive translation/performance. (& fab characterisation from both.) 👏 @hannahsands03 @Bryony_Shan
Her: "You shouldn't be parking in that disabled bay." Me: "It's ok, I've got a blue badge." Her: "Well you don't look like you should have one; you're too pretty to be disabled." Me: ".........." 🖕🏼
We have to recognise asking an actor (Deaf or Hearing) to go from an English script to BSL means extra skills and training are needed #translation #interpreting #avt #equityBSL @Interp_Play
#equityBSL @sophieLStone quite right need to recognise working with BSL & English is working in 2 languages and cultures #culture #translation #interpreting

Interpreting theatre into sign language in the hoof or without real translation time disrespects the performance, the Deaf audience and the real work of the interpreter. Please don’t do it. It doesn’t help. In this case, ‘anything’ is *not* better than nothing. 3/3
needs time, rigour and a knowledge of how theatre makes meaning for all audiences. No-one would ask a Spanish-English translator to knock out a version of Blood Wedding overnight, would they? No. And they don’t have 2perform the translation live in the moment of performance. 2/3
