Clarke's body language, too, is bigger, more expansive. Her movement has a power that is not just the result of heavy black work boots.

Denise Clarke's witty choreography has enlivened productions for years. But it's when she's on her own - with no left-footed actors or inflexible script demands to get in the way - that she really gets to cut loose. Clarke does just that in Sign Language, using a "dance salon" motif to open up a two-way communication with the audience.
