Many deaf people responded to that play very well. Most of the time I see deaf people go to plays and then they forget all about it.

They enjoyed it and then they... it was at Gallaudet. Gallaudet gives many performances and there's many others all over the place that give uh performances. Response is so-so.

I want to brag but our play was really wow. It was um, lot of ovations uh from the audience, because the play and uh the deaf, everyday deaf life, in the deaf club related to them so well. And they really enjoyed it.

Let me explain to you what she's talking about. We have a theatre called Tales from a Clubroom. And it was based on social life in a deaf club house and the deaf people inside. It was given last year in Ohio, and then in other different states. And some of them may not be familiar with what you were talking about. So would you play maybe what it looks like in the club?

[00:08:33]
{SPEAKER name="Speaker 2"}
Well as I said. You usually always go up one flight of stairs to get up to the club, wherever it is. We always rent an area space and it's usually on top of some commercial building in a large town. Will be a lot of folding chairs.

Some card tables. There'll probably be a bar. With a refrigerator. Small stove, maybe to cook some small things. There'll be a TV in the corner. Maybe every Friday or every Sunday night we'll have captioned films.

[00:09:06]
{SPEAKER name="Speaker 2"}
Usually you'll find anywhere between 30, 50, maybe 100 deaf people that are there over the weekend. You come in, maybe there'll... you need a key to get in. Some is uh doorbell, and someone will open the door and let you in.

[00:09:23]
{SPEAKER name="Speaker 2"}
You sit around. You'll see your friends. A lot of hellos.
