Description

We are seeing American Sign Language everywhere! It is being seen in concerts, movies, TV
productions and even in Broadway shows. ASL is a complete, natural language and is
expressed by movements of the hands and face. In theater, ASL uses pantomime, facial
expressions, body movements and stance, and grows so much confidence.

In this class, we will explore ASL’s beauty, its language, its unique way of expressing yourself, and then use it in
theater.

Caitlyn Guiffreda

I'm excited to bring American Sign Language to the youth students of CYT! I have been interpreting church services for over 25 years and have a passion for helping others discover the beauty of sign language. Because ASL is a visual language, theatrical expression plays an important role in bringing signs to life and communicating meaning. In this class, students will learn everyday signs, develop expressive signing skills, and discover how movement and facial expressions work together to tell a story. Throughout the session, we'll also learn a song in ASL that students will perform at the end-of-session showcase.
