British Sign Language

British Sign Language (BSL) semi-integrated performances are designed for audiences who are deaf or who have hearing impairments and either use BSL as their primary language or find it helpful to support their understanding of spoken English. We refer to these shows as ‘semi integrated’ as they are not side of the stage interpretation, nor is the BSL an inseparable part of the story.

Our interpreters are also usually performers and are rehearsed into the show to be fully a part of the performance

See below for your closest BSL semi-intergrated performance.
