Description
This is a premier viewing of the final revision of two short films (approx. 30-45 minutes each) are episodes (chapters) of a longer feature film (approx. 60-90 minutes total) that documents the generation of two performances by both deaf and hearing actors and stage crew: 1) For Every Man, Woman and Child--a modern morality inspired by EVERYMAN (written by world-renowned Deaf playwright Willy Conley) and 2) Deaf Snow White (directed by Broadway Deaf actor, Iosif Schneiderman). A version of a film about the Everyman performance (Listening to You, Listening to Me, Listening to Everyone: A Neomedieval, Deaf/Hearing, Community Theatre Experience) was previewed at several locations and events, including the International Conference on Medievalism and the University Film and Video Association Conference.
