I was in a one-act play that was ASL interpreted as part of the Bailiwick Theatre Director's Festival.

It was set on a colony ship where the hibernating colonists inhabited robot avatars in turn for necessary maintenance. Parts of it were VERY heavy on the technobabble. I played the robot crew chief and had a LOT of exposition.

One speech included "system failure caused random temperature fluctuations resulting in severe osmotic shock". We actually asked the interpreter to show us what she was doing for that part.

She signed "The machine is broken".
