Die eerste saadjie vir \u2019n geleentheid waar DoofBlinde mense die wonderw\u00eareld van teater (die een met \u2019n verhoog) kan ervaar, is meer as twee jaar gelede geplant. <\/p>\n

Maande lank is beplan en bepeins, kopgekrap en gereeld van plan verander. Niemand kon vooraf presies weet hoe om abstrakte konsepte soos \u201ctoneelspeel\u201d en \u201ckonsert hou\u201d oor te dra en te verduidelik nie; nog minder kon ons voorspel hoe dit deur volledig DoofBlindes ge\u00efnterpreteer sou word, inaggenome dat niemand se intelligensie onderskat en gewis nie \u201cafgepraat\u201d sou word na \u2019n DoofBlinde gehoor nie. <\/p>\n

Geen model waarvolgens ons kon toets of vergelyk, bestaan nog nie. DoofBlind behels grade van doofheid sowel as blindheid binne een liggaam. DoofBlinde mense is \u2019n gemarginaliseerde groep binne die groter gestremde gemeenskap wat weinig, indien ooit, die teater besoek, en die meeste van die genooide gaste het nog ooit vantevore \u2019n teatervertoning bygewoon nie. <\/p>\n

Voorsiening sou dus gemaak moes word vir uiteenlopende kommunikasiebehoeftes soos dit van een individu na die volgende verskil.<\/p>\n

Die aktrise Sandra Prinsloo was van die eerste woord af begeesterd vir die uitdaging en het onderneem om die teks van die toneelstuk Oskar en die pienk Tannie<\/em> aan te pas en te verkort. <\/p>\n

Die Stigting vir Bemagtiging deur Afrikaans (SBA) het insgelyks niks teruggehou nie: klank- en beligtingtegnici asook \u2019n verhoogbestuurder is vir die geleentheid nadergewink. <\/p>\n

Niks sou te veel moeite vir hierdie spesiale geleentheid wees nie. Selfs kospakkies is vir elke gas voorberei.<\/p>\n

Dertig DoofBlinde gaste en elkeen se assistent of begeleier en tolk is hartlik uitgenooi. Die aanvanklike reaksie van die eregaste het gewissel van versigtige opgewondenheid tot ietwat sku en selfs bangerig vir hierdie nuwe ervaring. Iemand het selfs bespiegel dat Oskar self moontlik \u2019n DoofBlinde seuntjie is. Ander het prontuit ges\u00ea hulle ken ook pienk tannies!<\/p>\n

Toe die groot dag aanbreek, het mense met uiteenlopende gestremdhede op die spektrum van DoofBlindheid hul sitplekke ingeneem. Selfs \u2019n spesiale lae verhoog is in die middel van die Danie L\u00fcckhoffsaal staangemaak sodat die gaste naby aan die verhoog kon wees. <\/p>\n

Prinsloo het tussen die mense beweeg sodat hulle aan haar kon raak; kostuums en miniatuurweergawes van dekorstelle is rondgestuur om aan te sluit by die aktrise se kort inleiding oor die betekenis van teater.<\/p>\n

Uiteindelik het Oskar en Prinsloo se vertolking niemand in die saal onaangeraak gelaat nie. Hulle wou nog h\u00ea! Die konsert moes langer wees, was algemene terugvoer. <\/p>\n

In die toekoms kan ons voortbou op waardevolle lesse wat uit hierdie ervaring geleer is. <\/p>\n

\u2019n Groot handeklap en gejuig vir almal wat hierdie waagstuk onverskrokke aangepak het; ook aan die DoofBlinde vrou wat \u2019n serp vir Oskar gebrei het.<\/p>\n

Die gebeurtenis sou nie sonder die hartlike samewerking van verskeie organisasies en individue kon plaasvind nie. Dankie SBA, Innovation for the Blind en DoofBlind SA Wes-Kaap \u2013 julle is almal supersterre!<\/p>\n

Baie dankie ook aan Worcester Standard<\/span>, wat op 28 Julie 2022 oor hierdie heuglike gebeurtenis berig het.<\/em> <\/em><\/p>\n

Nuwe geleenthede<\/div>\n
\n

Maak gerus kontak met DoofBlind SA Wes-Kaap om met ons te kom gesels oor enige nuwe moontlike geleenthede.<\/em><\/p>\n

Dit is nodig om hul saai lewe met die mooi dinge in die lewe te verhelder.<\/em><\/p>\n

Die skep van nuwe geleenthede en blootstelling aan nuwe ervarings vir ons DoofBlinde gemeenskap is vir ons \u2019n baie belangrike taak omdat die DoofBlinde gemeenskap onts\u00ea word van soveel wonderlike geleenthede om te kan ervaar en belangstellings te ontwikkel weens algemene onkunde oor DoofBlinde mense se vermo\u00ebns en behoeftes.<\/em><\/p>\n
