When JJ – the hearing son of deaf parents – agrees to teach Sign to the mysterious Eliza, he embarks on a voyage of discovery that takes him to the outer limits of language, science, nature, ethics – and love.

“Her hands were a different instrument, a different voice.”

Adapted from Peter Goldsworthy’s novel and performed by Helpmann and Green Room Award-winning actor-theatre maker Humphrey Bower - with dancer-choreographer Danielle Micich and musician-actor Leon Ewing, this new production by chamber theatre company Night Train promises to enchant, astonish, challenge and move you.
