Theatre Terrific pioneers inclusive opportunities for all artists of all abilities. This coming Fall, September 9th, 6PM, we are producing an Aboriginal with mixed abilities theatre at the Sculpture Grove on Granville Island called The Hidden Stories Project.
The Sept 9th, 6PM show will be American Sign Language interpreted in order to be more accessible to the Deaf and Hard of Hearing community. We are proud to champion in this level of accessibility as there are not many productions that provide this kind service.
Please contact Landon Krentz at generalmanager@theatreterrific.ca if you like to arrange a complimentary ticket if you are an individual with a low-income status. Fringe Festival memberships are not included.
