CBC: Canada has its own Deaf Theatre here in Montreal, in the French speaking province of Quebec, so I can imagine trying to follow the play when both Langue de Signes Québécoise (LSQ) and American Sign Language (ASL) are combined. "Seen & Heard" is somewhat an experimental project putting together a cast of Deaf and hearing people off the streets, meaning those without any theatrical experiences and letting them perform a simple well-known story "Little Mermaid." I remember that statue when I tour Denmark, visiting their Deaf school across the railroad tracks.
The Seeing Voices Montreal is the production company, taking its inspirations from our American counterpart Deaf West.
