The plays are varied in style - a Kabuki western, an ensemble-created variety show, a visual-gestural play with no spoken nor signed language, a cartoon tragicomedy, historical and domestic dramas, and a situation comedy. This volume contains the well-known Deaf Theatre classics: Tales from a Clubroom, Sign Me Alice, My Third Eye, and A Play of Our Own.
