One in 6 adults in the UK will lose their hearing in their lifetime; two of those are Ray Bradshaw’s parents and this brand-new show is all about growing up as a Coda: A Child of Deaf Adults.
His upbringing was nothing like the Oscar winning film and he’s here to tell you why.
??Coda is a funny, heartwarming show all about the brilliant things that happen when you grow up in a house where sign language is the first language used; whether it’s watching his Dad shut his eyes to win any argument or beating his in-laws easily when they suggested playing charades against a deaf family on Christmas Day.
