    Immediate thoughts are:
    • physical access to the dance floor (toilets) -- especially if the venue has a large number of steps and limited lifts.
    • are radio mikes / discos are linked to any induction loop system.
    • flashing lights might be problematic to epileptics
    • smoke machines might be problematic to asthmatics.


    Possibly also:
    • access to information, e.g. non-flash (text) versions of websites -- not just scanned images of brochures.
    • are forms are available in clear, large print editions.

    Oh right. I have no idea what "IANAL" means, but I thought you were suggesting that there is no need for a dance company to think of the needs of the disabled, as they wouldn't be dancing, I was just going to come back and tell you of the 2 deaf people, the 1 partially blind person, and the 2 people in wheelchairs that I know, I'm sure there're loads more!

    I apologise for assuming you were going to say something that you weren't.
