Preference for tickets is given t0 the deaf and their guests, but tickets are also sold to hearing people who are interested în seeing theatre interpreters at ‘work. DEAF 0 Tt î a colossal project for the interpreters. lan Cox works for SeeTheatre, Chicago-based association of interpreters. He says, „Tor about a month we work 25 with the support ofa Sign Language consultant to 14 translate and rehearse an entire play. The workload is immense. Consider that each actor in the play has about four weeks to rehearse his or her lines; we have to learn the whole play în as much time. 30 Pate Ana, when interpreting ‘musicals, where timing, rhythm and harmonies must be practised, the workload doubles” 38 ‘The most important technical aspect of theatre interpretation for the deat isthe location of the interpreter. Placement strategies can be 40 categorised into three styles: ‘placed’, where interpreters are located outside the acting space nd do not move; ‘zoned’, where interpreters are within the 45 acting space, but usually move only during a change of scene or act; and, finaly, ‘shadowed’, where interpreters move freely within the acting space, shadowing the movement of the actors for whom they are 50 interpreting 1.

The interpreters are side-by-side and face the audience (although 33 some interpreters interact with each other as appropriate). The location of the interpreter is ‘generally in one of three places: stage right or Stage ef, or on the oor of the house ‘The ‘zoned’ syle of interpreter placement îs a © happy medium between the ‘placed’ and ‘shadowed? styles. Here, interpreters are placed side-by-side within the acting space. Usually, they change position on stage from Scene to scene – or from act to act – in order to be within the same 65 ‘zone’ as the majority of the action. Zone placement makes it easier for the deaf patron to see the interpreters and actors at the same time. The ‘shadowed! style of interpreting i the ‘most inclusive sive of interpreting for the theatre. 70 1 involves placing the interpreters directly within the action ~ nearly making them ‘sign language actors. The interpreters are “blocked! into each scene, and literally shadow the actors. The advantage ofthis is clear: the interpreter i in such 75 close proximity tothe actor thatthe deaf patron need not make a decision about whom to watch – be or she can watch both at the same time, In the best of case, the deaf patron mentally blends the interprete with the actor, and forgets that the 20 actor doesnot sign. ‘Theatre interpreters for the deaf are dedicated professionals who take great pride in their work. “Theatre,” says lan, i the art of communicating beautiful ideas in interesting ways.
