    \nACT Theatre, Seattle, WA<\/p>\n

    In the idyllic setting of Martha\u2019s Vineyard, a fiercely protective deaf man and his hearing ex-wife battle over the morality of an impending cochlear implant surgery for their daughter, which will restore her hearing. The conflict is exacerbated by the girl\u2019s torn desires \u2013 caught between her parents\u2019 deep-seated betrayals. Woven between the scenes a parallel story emerges, where we discover Alexander Graham Bell, 130 years earlier, whose obsession to find a cure for deafness in the same location leaves loss and betrayal of another kind. Sound<\/em> is a deeply theatrical exploration into the worlds of both hearing and Deaf cultures to reveal the complex relationship the Deaf world has with the hearing.<\/p>\n

    directed by Desdemona Chiang<\/p>\n
