Mary-Jayne Russell de Clifford: The challenges of being a deaf freelance artist

Quick summary:

1. I am a deaf freelance artist and I work in varied roles as; a theatre facilitator, theatre-maker, consultant, mentor, actor, poet, storyteller, scriptwriter, producer, project manager and theatre director mainly with young people recently.

2. Myself and another deaf colleague also recently spoke about the wide variation of fees that deaf theatre makers, directors or consultants charge.

3. She worked with Deafinitely Theatre, Vamos Theatre, Taking Flight Theatre and currently re-establishing her theatre company, DeDrama (temporary name)

4. I wonder if there is a workshop or training available in BSL relating to creating terms and conditions for deaf freelancers and advice on how to manage cancellations
