Sign Language Interpreters Needed for Theater Performances 10/26/18 and 10/27/18 in Baltimore

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: CORNER COMMUNITY CENTER INC

  • 1 person is interested

Members of the Baltimore Job Hunters Support Group will be performing the play "Big Work: A Documentary Play," which consists of modern-day monologues on work, career, and the American Dream. This performance marks the MidAtlantic premiere of the work and will be the first time that the play has been performed by community members. The performance is in part an effort to raise awareness of the long term unemployment problem in Baltimore and the U.S., as well as a fundraiser and friendraiser.
We seek 6 sign language interpreters (3 for each of the 2 performances) to interpret the play for deaf and hearing impaired audience members, if requested. We are requesting 1 week's notice of ticket holders.
If you are fluent in American Sign Language and will be available on either Friday 10/26 or Saturday 10/27, please contact Janet Glover-Kerkvliet at janglovkerk@bjhsg.org or 410-627-2372. Thank you!
