A close up of Johnny's face. He is looking up and holding two heaing aids, one in each hand, close to his cheeks.

Johnny is sitting on a chair, looking straight towards the camera. He is wearing a blue jacket and grey jeans. He is sitting next to an easel which holds a piece of paper. On the piece of paper is written 'I am deaf' in capital letters.

Johnny is standing on stage with a blue abstract projection lighting up the set behind him. He has a homemade contraption on his head which is made from gaffa tape, headphones and wires. His arms are reaching out either side of him.

Johnny is standing on stage next to a large easel which holds a piece of paper reading 'Deaf not stupid' in red capital letters.

Johnny is standing on stage against a black background. He is animatedly holding both hands up and out, with the hands pointing towards his face as though they are sock puppets without the socks.

Johnny is standing on stage in front of a projection of the word 'Boom!' in bright purple letters.

About this event

Jonny is a teacher, a workshop leader and an avid football fan. He’s just become a father. His friends say that he’s outgoing and that he loves music, festivals and nightclubs. Jonny is deaf. He was born deaf to hearing parents who were afraid that disability would stigmatise their son and the family.

Louder Is Not Always Clearer is an honest portrayal of the vulnerability of a deaf man, created and performed by a deaf man. For a hearing audience it is an illuminating and emotional experience. For deaf audience members the show is a familiar tale of misunderstanding and isolation. For all audiences it is a humorous and at times moving story of one man’s attempt to cope, to fit in and be accepted.

Mr and Mrs Clark make new and thought-provoking performances that engage and entertain audiences. The Clarks were short-listed for the Amnesty International Freedom of Expression Award in 2015 and presented (F.E.A.R.) as part of Wales in Edinburgh in 2017.

Age Guidance: 12+
Performance presented in partnership with the Rural Touring Dance Initiative and Carn to Cove.
