'Sign Me Alice' is based on George Bernard Shaw's 'Pygmalion.' It is about the life of the deaf mingling in the world of the hearing. In this play, the heroine does not ask for pity but for the right to the deaf's choice: sign language. 'Sign Me Alice' is a delightful comedy. It is an affirmation, too, that language used naturally need not fit fusty pedantic definitions of it to be a real language.
