\u201cMake Meat Great Again.\u201d That shout comes from one of the disgruntled employees at Meat Expectations. For some time now, the people who work at this cleverly named meat processing plant have seen the principles of their beloved workplace undermined and their own skill, knowledge, and their very lives not valued. The employees\u2019 disappointment is deeper because the new CEO of the company is a fourth-generation descendant of the original founder, someone they\u2019ve watched grow up and who they sent off to college with high hopes and great \u2014 or, as punningly put in the title \u2014 Meat Expectations<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Embodying the show\u2019s ironic sense of humor and outrage, this shout is delivered in American Sign Language (ASL) because this entire musical<\/em> production \u2014 now in Gallaudet University\u2019s Eastman Black Box Studio Theatre through April 27 \u2014 is performed in ASL. The show is designed to be accessible to Deaf and hearing audiences alike through the use of open captions and tactile music. New York Deaf Theatre commissioned the piece from a team of respected Deaf Theater creatives that included Lewis Merkin, JW Guido, Seth Gore, and Monique \u201cMoMo\u201d Holt and Deaf composer Jay Alan Zimmerman. Meat Expectations<\/em> is a landmark piece of theater production. Instead of translating an English script into ASL, this piece of theater was developed from its inception in American Sign Language.<\/p>\n

What is a musical without singing? Lyrics, like the rest of the text, are delivered in ASL. Composer Zimmerman\u2019s beats and melodies are catchy, and you are aware that you are feeling those beats with the rest of the audience. We not only hear but also feel the vibration of tempo and texture in the music in our bodies. This production makes use of that tactile information to enable us to feel the music\u2019s emotion and intention. In this production, the music is driving, stimulating, and convincing. Toward the end of the show, there is even audience participation when one of the characters teaches us a song in ASL and invites us to \u201csing\u201d along.<\/p>\n

Meat Expectations<\/em> is a morality play, a fable of inheritance, survival, community, investment of people in themselves and the betrayal of that trust. The show features the type of buffoonery, slapstick, song, and dance that you would experience in an English pantomime performance. Consistent with being a morality play, the characters do not have personal names but rather are named by their role: CEO, CFO, Foreman, Butcher, Loudmouth, etc. The costumes and makeup reflect this fantastical and archetypal aspect of the story. Everyone has exaggerated, cartoonish makeup and hair. The meat cleavers are cut-outs. The CFO, an obviously slender person, is dressed in a fat suit. The entire cast takes to their roles with infectious energy and enjoyment. But special note must be made of Jayce Yeh, whose ecstatic, off-balance, and whirling-dervish dancing as the egotistical, self-serving CFO frequently threatened to take flight and filled the audience with amazement and delight.<\/p>\n

Ethan Sinott\u2019s industrial, metallic gray set, with vertical vinyl panels that keep the cold of the refrigeration confined without impeding movement through the spaces, evokes the no-nonsense desolation of a workspace devoted to making a profit from the blood of animals. (No judgment here. I mean, at Meat Expectations, the cows do get a massage beforehand, and they leave this veil of tears in a state of contentment.) But there is nothing frivolous about this space of panels and metal with no color or design to distract from the chopping and packaging of cow\u2019s flesh. As the CFO is allowed to implement increasingly inhumane innovations, the music rumbles and grinds to announce the entry of the biggest, fastest flesh-chewing machine ever. At one point, the machine eats a portion of the arm of one of the dedicated and exhausted workers.<\/p>\n

On opening night, sometimes the open captioning ran too fast, and sometimes the transliteration from ASL to English was challenging, so there was some frustration. The house manager seemed to anticipate this challenge and, at the top of the show, encouraged those of us in the hearing audience who did not use ASL to trust the visual storytelling and not lean so hard into having to understand everything concretely in words. That trust was justified.<\/p>\n
