Theatre interpreting: an introductory workshop

Are you interested in finding out more about BSL/English theatre interpreting?
Do you want to develop your skills for interpreting a professional or amateur play?  
Would you like to gain insights from an experienced West End theatre interpreter?

If so, and you have BSL level 3 or above, then this 1 day workshop is for you!

Donna Ruane is nationally renowned for her BSL/English interpretations of London's most famous West End theatre productions.  You will develop knowledge and skills that are applicable to both professional and amateur settings.

We will be covering:
- the background to theatre interpreting
- scripts: how to prepare, where to start and what to drop
- the use of BSL and SSE when interpreting in the theatre
- information about theatre contacts, preparation materials and working in the theatre.

Comments from participants in 2012:
‘Donna has been fabulous.  There’s nothing like learning from someone who is doing it themselves and knows exactly what they’re talking about.’
‘It’s practical and also theoretical. The combination of both provides a clear way of understanding and taking in the issues faced – and the prep required’
‘Donna made the content very interesting and easy to learn’

We are conveniently based in the West End of London, 5 minutes from Holborn and Covent Garden tube stations!
