‘Song in Sign’ is a concert containing opera music, merging classical song with BSL – designed to span the deaf and hearing experiences in new ways.
Three musicians and two deaf actors will interact, the actors signing the words to the songs, with their signing matching the pace and mood of the music as a visual expression of its energy and emotion.
Alongside the performances, there are free creative workshops available for local people in Southwark to get involved. They are created and led by Ruth Montgomery and delivered in collaboration with musician and singer, Joanne Roughton-Arnold. They are 2 – 2.5 hours long. If you are aged 14 upwards, keen to learn about opera music as well as develop your creative potential with music, then this workshop is for you!
Workshops will take place in Southwark on Saturday 13th January.
