Abstract

What sets theatre sign language interpreters apart from their colleagues in non-theatre settings is that they focus not only on the mechanics, but the theatrics of their craft. After examining the role of the theatre interpreter and current interpreting models, a new model is proposed that reflects the overlapping roles of actors and theatre interpreters. This leads to the understanding that theater accessibility for Deaf and Hard of Hearing patrons is a shared responsibility among the constituents that form the theatergoing experience as whole.
