"WATCHING TWO WORLDS COLLIDE"<br>
<br>
KEITH WANN - ASL Comedian <br>

Austine School for the Deaf - Gymnasium <br>
209 Austine Drive, Brattleboro, VT <br>

<?/bigger><?/fontfamily><?fontfamily><?param Times New Roman><?bigger>Keith
Wann is an acclaimed American Sign Language (ASL) performing artist who has
been captivating and amusing audiences with his controlled chaos and total
pandemonium explosions on stage, often leaving his laughing audiences gasping
for breath. As a Child of Deaf Adults (CODA), he has traveled all over the
nation performing for ASL students, various Deaf Communities and other warped
CODAs like himself.<br>
<br>
Come and enjoy a night of storytelling and Deaf Culture. Laugh with Keith as he
takes you on a hilarious ASL"visual" journey to describe his
childhood experiences. Come learn about the Deaf and Hearing Worlds and how
they often clash with the help of a mischievous child of deaf adults. . . <br>
<br>
Born hearing to Deaf parents in <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:State w:st="on">California</st1:State></st1:place>,
Keith grew up living in both the hearing and Deaf worlds, and has been able to
create unique perspectives on the ways of both worlds. This has evolved into a
one man show, "Watching Two Worlds Collide," which takes a humorous,
almost shocking, look at both worlds.<br>
