Talk to Me

How do we connect beyond words? Talk to Me is a devised performance using Indian Sign Language, text, images, and silences to discover ways of meaningful interaction. It brings together a deaf performer with non-sign language artists from various fields, including filmmaking, painting, and design, to craft a language beyond speech.

It blends personal, playful pop culture elements, examining the diverse ways we communicate our stories. At a time where words are excessively used as rhetoric by authoritarian figures, this show asks if we can find a more humane, collective voice.
