Performed in British Sign Language, English and Farsi, Summit is a new play written and directed by award-winning theatre-maker Andy Smith (The Preston Bill, what happens to the hope at the end of the evening).
"We need to use our imagination. We need to imagine that change might be possible. That change is possible, however hard or impossible it might seem.”
In a blend of English, Farsi and fully integrated BSL, three performers tell a story from three perspectives. It is the story of an international meeting. A meeting at which something happened, and in that moment everything changed.
Exploring equality and inviting action, Summit delves into ideas of language, rhetoric and how we communicate with each other, over three acts and in three different ways.
