SOUND OFF Festival
March 28, 2023 @ 10:00 am - April 2, 2023 @ 11:00 pm
As Canada’s national Deaf theatre festival, SOUND OFF builds upon the rich legacy of Deaf performers and Deaf performing groups in Canada to bring together Deaf performers from across the country for a festival dedicated to the Deaf performing arts.
Featuring seven mainstage performances, an improv collaboration with Rapid Fire, plus workshops, salon discussions and talkbacks. There’s something for everyone!
All performances and SOUND OFF events are accessible for both Deaf and hearing audiences. Most shows are in American Sign Language (ASL) and all shows will have interpretation for both languages where necessary. In addition, ASL/English Interpreters are available throughout the festival to provide communication services for all patrons with their visit. SOUND OFF is dedicated towards making theatre affordable for all audiences. In addition to many free events throughout the festival, all mainstage shows will be Pay-What-You-Can.
