She was the first deaf contestant and winner of
Strictly Come Dancing, and now Rose Ayling-Ellis is set to make history again by taking part in the UK’s first arena touring show that will have a
British Sign Language interpreter at every performance.
For each of the 33 shows of the forthcoming Strictly Live UK tour, producers are providing a registered interpreter who will appear on two large screens either side of the stage, meaning deaf people can sit almost anywhere in the venues to enjoy the event.
