About the course
Storytelling is for everyone – no matter what age, class or level of ability. As a hard of hearing person navigating an able-bodied world, Caroline has found skills and techniques in sign language that have enhanced her performances. Through this course, you will learn all about British Sign Language, hand sculptures, sign song and more to give an extra creative flourish to any performance. This course will also highlight ways you can use your performances to be more inclusive of deaf and HoH audiences.
