Born Between Waves

SOUND OFF: A Deaf Theatre Festival

Born Between Waves is a Deaf-led performance exploring identity, ancestry, and the in-between. Performed by Gaitrie Persaud as Rohenee, the piece follows her journey of connecting with her ancestors while grappling with her identity as a Deaf Indo-Caribbean woman. Moving between sound and silence, past and present, Rohenee confronts inherited histories, displacement, and belonging—searching for grounding in a world that often demands singularity.

Through movement, visual language, and embodied storytelling, Born Between Wave transforms struggle into rhythm and remembrance, honoring ancestral resilience while carving space for Deaf futures.

Created and performed by:
Gaitrie Persaud, James Balchand, Dhunmoon Balchand, Raveena Persaud, Michael Persaud, Aria Persaud and Ritchie.
