This programme sources talented Deaf learners from FTH:K's LEVEL 1 programmes and offers additional weekly training in theatre making and performance skills to Deaf learners in order to fast-track their development and groom them for potential employment either in FTH:K or other companies. This LEVEL is more advanced than the Introductory Programme and serves as an audition process to fill positions in FTH:K's LEVEL 3 programme. The Advanced LEVEL 2 Programme is new to the Tell-Tale Signs portfolio and aims to groom promising Deaf learners in their final year of schooling for employment in FTH:K. Participants in this programme receive remunerated for their involvement.
