Who All Over There? ASL-Interpreted Performance

Things aren’t always black and white—especially when it comes to relationships. When Dean, a young professional, and Danya, an aspiring singer, go on a refreshingly candid first date, they keep it real about the dynamics of a potential interracial relationship. As they grow comfortable nestled in the cocoon of their budding love, the real world brings a whirlwind of inflammatory race relations, opinionated family and friends, and troublesome pasts. Can love truly be colorblind? A commissioned world premiere, this updated remix of the critically acclaimed classic Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner shines a light on what happens when cultures clash in the name of love.

The performance on April 26 will be ASL-interpreted. We collaborate with interpreters from Cincinnati State’s Interpreter Training Program, who translate the play into ASL. Certified ASL interpreters develop and rehearse the ASL interpretation, which is then performed live. Interpreters are positioned in an area of the theater that gives the best sightlines for following the interpretation and the action on stage. We also have assistive listening devices available for all performances. Learn more about our accessibility services here.
