The Matthew Scott Moore Theatre

The Indiana School for the Deaf has named its auditorium after Matthew Scott Moore. The 1977 graduate went on to study social work at NTID in Rochester, New York. After graduating in 1983. he established an independent multimedia company and four years later started a magazine called Deaf Life, which he still publishes today. Moore also has a strong connection with theater. He portrayed Captain Hook in Peter Pan a decade ago and will play Willie Wonk this coming spring at NTID. Moore was born deaf into a hearing family.
