Theatre
Charlotte Arrowsmith’s directorial debut for Hear Art is a proudly Deaf perspective on a classic play with Stephen Collins and Kitty Devlin.
Join us for a unique, deaf-led, bilingual production of Nick Payne’s celebrated play, Constellations.
At its heart, Constellations is a story of connection, communication, and the infinite possibilities of the multiverse. Through a non-linear narrative, the play charts the relationship between Roland, a grounded beekeeper, and Marianne, an intellectually driven physicist. As their story unfolds, audiences are invited to explore how a single choice or moment can branch into entirely different realities, reflecting the complexities of love, memory, and the fragile nature of human existence.
This production is more than just a performance; it is a celebration of British Sign Language (BSL) as a dynamic, expressive language. By centering deaf artists and creative direction, we are shifting the narrative to showcase BSL as a core element of the storytelling experience.
Our production invites you to experience this exploration of parallel realities in a way that is visible, valued, and deeply engaging. Whether you are familiar with the play or discovering it for the first time, this BSL-led interpretation offers a fresh, visual, and heartfelt perspective on what it means to connect in a complex world.
We are incredibly grateful to be supported by the Mayor of London’s Office through the London Borough of Merton’s Liberty Festival programme, whose partnership has made this production possible.
