THE SOUND OF DOGS

An Imago Theatre and The Sound of Dogs Collective Co-Production Centaur Theatre’s Brave New Looks Selection for 2026/27 World Premiere THE SOUND OF DOGS By Jennifer Roberts Directed by Micheline Chevrier and Pamela Witcher October 1 – 10, 2026 at Centaur Theatre What’s it like to have Deaf parents? A wry investigation. CODA is a hearing child of Deaf parents. She has always seen her life as normal despite being told otherwise. Again. And again. And again. In an attempt to explain her life to curious outsiders, CODA invites us into her world, as she traces the not-so-distant histories that have shaped her family and community. Through Deaf cultural storytelling and humour, she shares personal stories and pushes back against the assumptions made about her parents. Blending American Sign Language, spoken English, and movement within a vivid digital landscape, THE SOUND OF DOGS builds a layered world of expression and connection. Both intimate and expansive, it celebrates the beauty and complexity of Deaf culture (with a touch of mischief).
