Puff and the Magic Binoculars

I am Puff is a children’s cartoon created for Deaf and hearing children. The web series combines a mix of live-action and animation, incorporating both American Sign Language and spoken English, with captioning also available. The energetic fictional character Puff demonstrates what it means to be Deaf in a positive light, with lessons in Deafness, sign language, culture, and Deaf identity. The five-minute episodes are a vibrant, colourful introduction to Deaf culture. 1S1’s Mission is to create theatre at the intersections of the Deaf and hearing worlds, always from a Deaf-led perspective. 1S1 was established with the goal of bringing balance in how to tell a story and whose stories are told. To create theatre for a hearing audience is one thing, to design theatre for a Deaf audience is another, but to put both together is where the excitement is. 1S1 aims to tell a story from a Deaf-led perspective so we are constantly creating new theatrical languages.
