Family Performance Wild Zappers!
Discovery Theater Performance
(for all ages) Come under the spell of this all-male, all-deaf dance group with impeccable rhythm. Can you feel the beat with them? They groove to the good vibrations in this high-energy performance of hip-hop, disco, and other dance styles. Good thing they teach you how to applaud for deaf people -- once you start, you won't stop!
