Why Deaf Utopia?
Deaf Utopia, signed as DEAF WORLD was created by Angela Petrone Stratiy as an independent business. Angela dreams of a better world for Deaf people away from the obstacles in our everyday lives. An ideal world is free of oppression, discrimination, and misconceptions. “The concept of place is so central to the lives of America’s [and Canada’s] Deaf people that a utopian vision of a “Deaf Country,” one created by and for the Deaf, has long played a role in American Deaf culture.” (A Journey Into the Deaf-World by Harlan Lane, Robert Hoffmeister and Ben Bahan) What Do We Offer? Workshops on ASL (American Sign Language) and Deaf culture are provided; as well as solo comedy shows. For workshop and/or show information please contact Angela.
