Epic Jam Featuring Ryan Schlecht with Host Nat Wilson
Deaf Spotlight is thrilled to announce Epic Jam VI on March 13, 2014 featuring Ryan Schlecht! He is sure to deliver a magnificent performance in ASL.
The goal of Deaf Spotlight’s Epic Jam is to revitalize the Deaf cultural gathering, where people can share poems and tell stories in American Sign Language (ASL). This is part of a long-time tradition that has passed down from Deaf Clubs and Deaf schools through several generations. This is a fantastic opportunity for you to see, support and develop a larger pool of performers and poets who celebrate ASL. The audience will be encouraged to interact and, in the process, develop an appreciation for why ASL literature is so deeply valued in the Deaf community.
From personal and creative experience, Ryan will share his comedic stories as a professional actor. Hailing from the Pacific Northwest, Ryan is a Deaf Youth Drama Program Alum, National Theatre of the Deaf Alum, comedian, actor, play director, and producer. He also performed and toured with “Big River” by Deaf West Theatre in the States and internationally, earning a Tony Award.
Hosting the evening with his heartwarming energy inviting audience participation is Nat Wilson. Nat is a National Theater of the Deaf Alum, storyteller, comedian, and host for festivals and events celebrating ASL and Deaf culture. He works as a part-time ASL instructor and ASL theatre instructor in the Deaf Studies program at Seattle Central Community College.
Consider Epic Jam your “open stage” opportunity to share your poems and stories! Come and join us!
