On Sunday, the LA Times had a long article about Deaf West's new drama, "Open Window," now playing at the Pasadena Playhouse; and they followed up Monday with a substantial and positive review of the show. Linda Bove plays a linguist, and Shoshannah Stern her daughter, a psychologist assigned to evaluate a "wild child" case, a deaf young man apparently without language from an badly abusive and deprived childhood. Next up for Deaf West, another musical, from the same director who helmed the company's acclaimed versions of "Oliver!" and "Big River"--this time, an (as yet untitled) original adaption of the Sleeping Beauty story. (There are LA Times links in this paragraph that will probably expire--so read them while they're hot.)
Meanwhile, in Rochester NY, the National Technical Institute of the Deaf (NTID) Performing Arts program is offering "The Passion of Dracula" just in time for Halloween (October 27-30). There's even a Halloween party after the Saturday night show, and a matinee on Sunday.
