BSL Interpreted

If British Sign Language (BSL) is your preferred language, we offer multiple performances in which BSL interpreters are either integrated into the performance or stand on the side of the stage.

BSL users can book tickets using SignLive, an online BSL video interpretation service. You can also book the best seats for viewing the BSL interpreter online by signing up to our Access Pass.

Introducing the BSL Interpreters

Clare Canton has over 30 years’ experience in teaching BSL from introduction through to interpreter level. She holds a PGDip and MA in Interpreting BSL-English. Clare is one of only a few registered qualified deaf interpreters and translators in Scotland and holds a Philosophy Master's in the work and experience of deaf interpreters.

Catherine King is an interpreter specialising in performance and comedy. She works with several theatre companies in the UK including the National Theatre of Scotland and can be seen on Adam Hills's DVDs Happyism and Clown Heart. Catherine is in the f inal phase of her PhD investigating the dramaturgy of performance interpreting.

Yvonne Strain grew up with BSL as her second language, gaining professional registration and experience across all sectors before specialising in the arts. Yvonne has interpreted performances nationally and internationally and, informed by Deaf audience feedback, developed her style to integrate creatively and holistically within performance.
