Extraordinary Wall [Of Silence]

Thursday 24 – Saturday 26 October at 7.45pm
Saturday matinee at 2.45pm

EXTRAORDINARY WALL OF SILENCE

Helen, Alan, and Graham are told they are impaired and need fixing. As they begin to question the world around them, three powerful coming-of-age stories unfold, uniting in a struggle against violence, ignorance and oppression.

Connecting through a shared past they are transported to one pivotal moment in 1880 when a dangerous ideology was born: one that would impair the way the world views D/deaf people for over a century.

Ad Infinitum combines the company’s signature style of physical storytelling with the beauty of British Sign Language in an unmissable feast for the senses.

“A theatre company that refuses to be put in a box”
