Some thoughts about recording your session

What is the title of your session?

Deaf Access

What is the name of the person who called the session?

Steph

Who attended the session? (You can pass this piece of paper round and ask people to write their name on it.)

Summary of discussion: (Notes, ideas, further questions, conclusions, recommendations for actions to take, contact details of relevant people / organisations etc)

Captioning performance think about font size /background/ colour/ lighting placement.

At the end of the day we need someone/ theatre’s to take companies accountability to make this happen.

Would like to see Theatre’s /NTW to have a specialist disability access officer.

Audience development – we don’t want to have to see performances about disability/ mental health/ Deafness/ DU etc. We want stories too. Less issues about Deafness more stories where there just happens to be characters who are Deaf.

Can we have a disability arts festival in wales?

Who is responsible to actively encourage audience participation and keep them coming?

Often the onus is on the terp or captioner to let the Deaf community aware of access performances.

Insufficient programming info on hynt website – theatres/ companies not actively sharing info or more management from hynt required?

Access needs to be part of the norm.

Performances who advertise full access eg. Welsh/ eng/ BSL access. We expect full BSL access only to find that actors have incorporated ‘some BSL’ into the show.

Only one creative captionner in wales? More training oppurtunities required for captioning / BSL Terps/ Audio Describers.

One closed captioner for stagetext in Wales retiring soon – training for replacement required.

Theatre companies to take on more accountability for access and audience development.

Accessible promotional materials.

BSL to be considered the same as in welsh.

More consultation required with disability consultants on how best to make a performance accessible. BSL/ Creative captioning etc.

Deafblind people– more thought for improving access here.

Know your audience and provide access for all – audio described / BSL / captioning and relaxed performances.

Theatre’s to be more proactive in allowing access to suit everyone.

Advertising access performances are non existence or small print on leaflets.

Don’t book terps last min!!!

dON’T just provide access for the one performance that’s it.

More training and utilisation of access in theatre.

Training for theatre companies and actors to include access as part of their work.

Cardiff has lots of accessible theatre but there is still a feeling of tokenism.

Access starts well before the performance- advertising, booking, marketing , websites etc.

Venues to make extra effort to make ALL people feel welcome.

Rhai syniadau ynghylch cofnodi eich sesiwn

Beth yw teitl eich sesiwn?

Mynediad i Bobl Fyddar

Beth yw enw'r person a alwodd y sesiwn?

Steph

Pwy ddaeth i'r sesiwn? (Gallwch basio'r darn hwn o bapur o gwmpas a gofyn i bobl ysgrifennu eu henwau arno.)

Crynodeb o'r drafodaeth: (Nodiadau, syniadau, cwestiynau, casgliadau, argymhellion ar gyfer camau i'w cymryd, manylion cyswllt pobl/sefydliadau perthnasol ac ati)

Capsiynau mewn perfformiad - meddyliwch am faint y ffont/cefndir/lliw/ lleoliad goleuadau.

Ar ddiwedd y dydd mae angen i rywun/theatrau i sicrhau atebolrwydd cwmnïau i wneud i hyn ddigwydd.

Hoffem i theatrau/NTW gael swyddog mynediad anabledd arbenigol.

Datblygu cynulleidfaoedd – nid ydym am orfod gweld perfformiadau am anabledd / iechyd meddwl / byddardod / DU ac ati. Rydym am gael straeon hefyd. Llai o faterion ynghylch byddardod a mwy o straeon sy'n digwydd cynnwys cymeriadau sy'n fyddar.

A allwn ni gael gŵyl celfyddydau anabledd yng Nghymru?

Pwy sy'n gyfrifol am annog cyfranogiad y gynulleidfa a sicrhau eu bod yn parhau i ddod?

Yn aml mae'r cyfrifoldeb ar y dehonglydd neu'r capsiynydd i roi gwybod i'r gymuned fyddar am berfformiadau mynediad.

Gwybodaeth annigonol am raglennu ar wefan hynt – nid yw theatrau / cwmnïau yn mynd ati i rannu gwybodaeth neu mae angen mwy o reoli gan hynt?

Mae angen i fynediad fod yn rhan o'r drefn arferol.

Perfformiadau sy'n hysbysebu mynediad llawn ee. Cymraeg / Saesneg / mynediad BSL. Rydym yn disgwyl mynediad BSL llawn dim ond i ganfod bod actorion wedi cynnwys 'ychydig o BSL' yn y sioe.

Dim ond un capsiynydd creadigol yng Nghymru? Angen rhagor o gyfleoedd hyfforddiant ar gyfer capsiynau / Dehonglwyr iaith arwyddion Prydain / Sain Ddisgrifwyr.

Mae un capsiynydd cau ar gyfer testun llwyfan yng Nghymru yn ymddeol cyn bo hir – mae angen hyfforddiant ar gyfer person newydd.

Cwmnïau theatr i fod yn fwy atebol o ran mynediad a datblygu cynulleidfa.

Deunyddiau hyrwyddo hygyrch.

Iaith arwyddion Prydain i gael ei ystyried yr un peth yn Gymraeg.

Angen mwy o ymgynghori gydag ymgynghorwyr anabledd ar sut orau i sicrhau perfformiadau hygyrch. Iaith arwyddion Prydain / Capsiynau Creadigol ac ati.

Pobl ddall a byddar – mwy o feddwl ynghylch gwella mynediad yma.

Adnabod eich cynulleidfa a rhoi mynediad i bawb – sain ddisgrifio / iaith arwyddion Prydain / capsiynau a pherfformiadau hamddenol.

Theatrau i fod yn fwy rhagweithiol wrth ganiatáu mynediad sy'n gweddu i bawb.

Nid yw hysbysebion ar gyfer perfformiadau hygyrch yn bodoli neu maent mewn print mân ar daflenni.

Peidiwch â threfnu dehonglwyr ar y funud olaf!!!

Peidiwch â darparu mynediad ar gyfer un perfformiad yn unig.

Mwy o hyfforddiant a defnydd o fynediad yn y theatr.

Hyfforddiant ar gyfer cwmnïau theatr ac actorion i gynnwys mynediad fel rhan o'u gwaith.

Mae llawer o waith theatr hygyrch yng Nghaerdydd ond mae yna deimlad o docynistiaeth o hyd.

Mae mynediad yn dechrau ymhell cyn y perfformiad - hysbysebu, archebu, marchnata, gwefannau ac ati.

Lleoliadau i wneud ymdrech ychwanegol i wneud i BAWB deimlo'n gartrefol.

DS - Cyhoeddir yr adroddiad hwn ar wefan NTW (gan gynnwys unrhyw gyfeiriadau e-bost a manylion cyswllt yr ydych yn eu cynnwys ynddo). Os hoffech chi i NTW drosglwyddo unrhyw gwestiynau y cânt am yr adroddiad hwn, nodwch eich cyfeiriad e-bost yma (ni fydd eich cyfeiriad yn cael ei gyhoeddi na'i ddefnyddio at unrhyw ddiben arall).
