Visual Description:

King, a Vietnamese hijabi, is facing you and bringing you into Speaking Vibration’s rehearsal room through a heavy door. The space is all black, walls, ceiling, and floor. The cast and crew are spread out across the room. The video cuts to Jo-Anne on a projector screen and Kat is beside it while Carmelle is a few chairs down, watching and accompanying Jo-Anne through a drum. The video goes back to King and then images with the show times, location, and ticket link.

What happens when I come into contact with a body in all its forms - when I see in my feet, hear in my hands and speak in vibrations?

This production features English and ASL Performance, creative captions and vibrotactile devices.
