We continue to expand our international friendships!

In March, a theatre camp for Deaf and hearing performers took place at the @nidaartcolony, where we explored how Shakespeare’s Macbeth could be performed on stage using two languages simultaneously — sign language and spoken word.

Throughout the week, stage artists and performers from Sweden, Finland, and Lithuania shared their experiences and sought answers to an important question: why is collaboration between Deaf and hearing professionals so rare and challenging, and what can be done to make these creative connections sustainable and enjoyable — while also ensuring that Deaf artists take on not only participatory roles but leadership positions as well?

The camp activities were led by Deaf lecturers: Canadian-born actress based in Finland, @dajabi Dawn Jani Birley, and American artist based in Sweden, Debbie Z Rennie @femteyoga.

We left with the hope that these activities will grow into long-term collaboration in the future, or perhaps even give rise to a new work of art.

Konferencijoje „Kurčiasis – profesionalus atlikėjas: kaip to pasiekti? 2026“ svečiuosis ypatinga viešnia iš Kanados ir Suomijos – aktorė, judesio menininkė, pedagogė ir teatro kūrėja Dawn Jani Birley.

🎭 Dawn yra trečios kartos kurčioji menininkė, kuri savo kūrybinėje veikloje dirba Kanadoje ir Europoje. Ji yra teatro @1s1theatre įkūrėja ir meno vadovė, taip pat dirba vertėja, dėstytoja bei teatro konsultante. Jos kūryba pasižymi stipriu fiziniu pasakojimu ir siekiu per meną kurti lygiavertį dialogą tarp kurčiųjų ir girdinčiųjų bendruomenių.

Dawn yra pelniusi Toronto Theatre Critics Award apdovanojimą už Horacijaus vaidmenį spektaklyje „Prince Hamlet“, o 2025 m. apdovanota Karaliaus Karolio III karūnavimo medaliu už indėlį į kultūrą 🏅

Savo meninėje praktikoje Dawn tyrinėja skirtingų tapatybių ir patirčių susikirtimus kaip kūrybinę jėgą, kvestionuoja galios struktūras ir išryškina kurčiųjų patirtį kaip svarbų kūrybos, įžvalgos ir pokyčių šaltinį.

Real transformation from within requires brutal honesty. It is raw and painful, but necessary to become the real me. 🤍
