Deaf theatre

Deaf theatre is an alternative form of theatre which is a collaboration of deaf actors or actresses. Using open space, the performers use gesture, dance, and sign language to perform to an audience. Production teams create theatre in their respective signed languages and many companies choose to have both hearing performers and deaf performers for a dual-language experience while some offer solely signed performances.
