Signed Interpreters

Hi Ashley,

We offer one signed and one audio-described performance for all of our produced shows and most of our week-long presented works. Dates are pre-determined and built into schedules and brochures/print. The signers will usually stand on a downstage corner, though side can be dependent on set design. At the moment, we’re thinking of how we could track people who are coming to these shows specifically to take advantage of the service, and how many are regular customers. It’s a bit tricky asking everyone who books ‘are you coming because it’s signed?’

Hope that helps!

Kathleen

Hello...

We have a few questions regarding signed interpreted performances and wanted to reach out to the forum to see how other handle them.

1 - do you have a pre-determined date or do you only offer a signed performance when requested

2 - do the signers stand on stage near the curtain or on the floor to the sides (house left or right)

3 - do you allow the locations to be able to be purchased online, if so, how

If you have any other advice or guidance it's much appreciated.

Thanks!
