KentState Trumbull Theatre to hold auditions for “See No Beast, Hear No
Beast, Speak No Beast.”

Inspired by variations of the fairytale, Beauty and the Beast, See No
Beast, Hear No Beast, Speak No Beast is the story of a hearing man who is
against the use of sign language and tends to think of deaf people as
sub-human. This is also the story of a beautiful deaf woman who enriches
her deaf students' lives by teaching with sign language. The story explores
the meanings of "beauty" and "beastliness", with the help of a
spell-casting witch. The central mission of this production is to encourage
deaf and hearing, signing and signing-impaired, to learn to work together
to create a positive and memorable experience for all.

The play will be directed by guest artist James "Joey" Caverly. Caverly is
an improv veteran, an actor who has worked on Broadway (Children of a
Lesser God) and television (Chicago
Med). Recently, he directed an ASL/English version of William Shakespeare’s
Romeo and Juliet for Community College of Baltimore County Community
Theatre.

Auditions will be held at Kent State Trumbull’s Theatre August 14 and 15 at
7:00 p.m. The play has roles for both signers (on-stage) and speakers (some
on-stage, others off-stage voice-over). Deaf and hearing, teenagers and
adults, signers and speakers, are encouraged to come!
