Reflections Through a DeafLens

Greetings,

The National Technical Institute of the Deaf recently unveiled a new deaf theatre website coordinated by Aaron Kelstone with the assistance of EDR staff Simon Ting and Cathy Clarke and faculty member Patricia Durr. This webiste showcases and promotes the works of national deaf and hard-of-hearing actors, performers and scriptwriters avalable through the National Technical Institute for the Deaf, a college of Rochester Institute of Teechnology. The site is designed for actors, performers, scriptwriters, students, teachers, scholars, and researchers. It offers access to biographies of the actors, performers or scriptwriters with descriptions of their work. Articles, scripts, book chapters and links to related sites are also featured. Please note that this is still a work in progress and more items will be added through this year.

The website is a positive and exciting contribution to society at large and specifically to theatre and Deaf Culture.  Congratulations to Aaron Kelstone and all who made this website possible. What a wonderful way to kick off the new year!

Happy New Year everyone,

Jane
