Lone Star College-CyFair / Windows of the World presents:
March 28, 2008 @ 7pm AND March 29, 2008 @ 9am to 1pm
Trix Bruce’s stories are those of culture clash and connection,
contact and confusion, and the many ways which language and identity
can twist our perceptions of each other. You will enjoy her energetic
style, witty delivery, poetic grace, and open-hearted honesty while
you gain a realistic perspective of life as a deaf person among the
hearing. Both Deaf and hearing people will be captivated by this
evening of theater, life, experience, and wisdom of Trix’s stunning
performance.
“Let me tell you what it is like to be a deaf person among the
hearing. I will show with you my most embarrassing moments, learning
experiences, greatest challenges and growing sense of pride. Through
these stories you will see how deaf culture has colored my life and
maybe discover that we have more in common than we think, Welcome to
my world!”
