John's eldest son, Joe, has an autoimmune condition causing progressive deafness. After a decade of trying to 'fix' Joe's hearing, the family come to the realisation that it is now time to reconsider and find out more about the Deaf community. John has set himself the target of delivering an entire signed stand-up comedy gig to a deaf audience. That means mastering an entirely new language and an entirely new way of performing.
