-- a reason for musical show refusing interpreters
two deaf Northern Ireland women, attending a big
musical event, requested interpreters in advance.
The tour promoter turned it down, and instead, offered
program scripts for them to follow. Why the refusal?
The tour director said interpreters cannot catch
everything that is being sung on the stage!
Is he stupid? Yes!
-- a hearing woman faking deafness
A true story. A hearing woman fell in love with
a hearing man. But she got panicky when the
hearing man asked her out for a date, and pretended
to be deaf. This relationship continued for several
months with the woman still faking deafness. This
relationship cooled off and both broke up - and the
man, to this day, never realized that she was never
deaf!
