~ INSIDE THE CREATIVE PROCESS AT NEW YORK DEAF THEATRE ~

We’re currently in a "Meat Expectations" workshop, developing new material for an ASL musical created entirely by deaf creators for New York Deaf Theatre.

This work is led by MoMo Holt, Seth Gore, and JW Guido, artists with a longstanding history of collaboration and a deep, trusted development team behind them. Their shared language, artistic shorthand, and years of working together are shaping a process that is bold, joyful, and deeply intentional.

The room is full of positive energy — laughter, experimentation, and care — as new ideas take form and the piece continues to grow. We’re incredibly excited about where this work is heading and can’t wait to share more when "Meat Expectations" comes out.

Special thanks to IRT Theater for generously sharing their space and supporting the development of new deaf-led work.

Stay tuned — this is powerful deaf-led storytelling in motion.�❤️🤍
