This amazing woman Jenny Sealey on Desert Island Disc, an eloquent intelligent pioneer of human rights and artistic achievements……

I'm going to go out on a limb and say this is the first time in Desert Island Discs' history that a BSL version of the show has been released. BBC Radio 4 Is this right? Beautifully edited and interpreted, including clips from the songs. Visit Graeae Theatre website.

We are happy to announce that we now have a BSL/Captioned version of Jenny Sealey’s Desert Island Discs now available on our website!

Feels like a pretty good time to share this.

Featuring some familiar Access All Areas faces and the mighty, much missed voices of Ed Percival and Sophie Partridge- both fierce, creative fighters for human rights ❤️

In 2015, over 40 individuals came together to present Acts of Memory, a recitation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Now, more than ever, it is vital for these voices to be heard and for all human rights to be upheld.

'Creeping up' If only we could get in the rooms to sneak up on them. 😂 Jenny being a ledge as always and setting the record straight.

Haters gonna hate. But we bring the love, and a call to action. Would the Murdoch media like a workshop? #CreepingUp

'We have a huge responsibility, the press, our community, and the wider mainstream world of theatre and everything, is to get the language right because it's discriminating, demeaning and awful.'

Jenny Sealey takes a moment to respond to yesterday's Daily Mail article.

Digging one’s heels in when a large number of people from an oppressed community are telling one to stop isn’t a good look. Listening and learning is what being an ally means. Listening and saying “soz I’m doing it anyway”…isn’t.

It’s taken decades for this industry to clear a path for Disabled actors, just to have a chance to work in this industry. With just one play, this progress has been undermined and leaves a dangerous precedent for disability erasure from our canon. #NothingAboutUsWithoutUs
