Y’all wanna shed some happy ass tears?

Meet Joshua Castille, a man cast to play Quasimodo in one of the few recorded stage productions of Hunchback of Notre Dame, which is much more like the book and 1930s film than the Disney cartoon.

The gargoyle beside him is EJ Cardona -- the voice of Quasimodo.  Like Quasi in the novel, Castille is completely deaf, and communicates his lyrics through ASL, while Cardona is one of the many gargoyles that serves as Quasimodo’s thoughts, his own personal voice.  Honestly, I thought the official cast recording with Michael Arden made me cry -- but watching Castille and Cordona perform “Out There” and “Made of Stone” is a religious experience.

Deaf representation matters.

Shhh! It’s a Secret!

I’ll confess something right up front.I’m not very good at keeping secrets. Oh, I try. But give me a delightful surprise — like a party, a gift, or some exciting news — and it practically bubbles right out of me.

Shhh! Please Don't Tell Me a Secret!

Shhh! Please Don’t Tell Me a Secret!

Please don’t tell me a secret. It’s just so hard to keep it to myself. I have been known to give away a surprise party before the party in a careless moment of unintentionality. I may have been the kid that went into stealth mode and opened all my Christmas presents and rewrapped them unbeknownst to my mom.

So, I’m in good company with those who couldn’t keep it to themselves about Jesus…

See No Evil, Hear No Evil ** (1989, Richard Pryor, Gene Wilder, Joan Severance) – Classic Movie Review 4826

The brilliantly talented funnymen movie star partners Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor are re-teamed for director Arthur Hiller’s wacky 1989 comedy thriller about a deaf man, Dave (Wilder), and a blind man, Wally (Pryor), who witness a killing.

They are mistaken for the murderers and go on the run from the police to catch the real killers. Most of the fun comes from the skill of the performers, and…

Ephphatha

In Mark 7, we read the story of Jesus healing the deaf and mute man. In verse 33, it says Jesus took the man aside and put His fingers into the man’s ears. Then He spit and touched the man’s tongue. After this, Jesus looked up to heaven and He says, “Ephphatha” which means open. But before the word was spoken, after the touching of the tongue, Jesus looked up to heaven and sighed.
