Rose Ayling-Ellis Instagram – During the matinee yesterday, an angry man in the audience interrupted the show with an entitled rant screaming that we were “discriminating against hearing people!”. He was looking at me directly. It was shocking.
The video is the reaction when we got back on the stage after he was kicked off. We picked up from Touchstone’s line, “The more pity that fools may not speak wisely what wise men do foolishly” 

In the same audience, a little deaf girl sat in the front row with her parents signing to her. Deaf members of the audience are able to sit wherever they want and whenever they want. Hearing people reading the captions, laughing and reacting to our signing on stage, coming into our world and understanding Shakespeare because of this. Two days ago, we had a BSL performance show, and 106 deaf people turn up. 

This is why we do accessible theatre.
