2055. The Programme has driven Deafness underground. Using sign language is forbidden and is a radical act of protest, evoking suspicion and oppression. Is Martha’s cabaret club a welcome home for an excluded minority, a safe haven for potential terrorists or something even more sinister?


A cast of six talented performers (5 Deaf, 1 hearing) bring this searing new drama to life in a mix of BSL, English and Sign Supported English. Fully accessible throughout, most of the action plays out in BSL or SSE, with any spoken English captured in creative captions created by Deaf designer Ben Glover. Hearing friends are also welcome, as BSL will be captioned to make it accessible for hearing audiences. The show will also be accessible for Blind and partially sighted audience members. There will also be a touch tour on Thursday 26 June.
