Access statement
We want everyone who visits to be able to browse the repertoire and play every production. This statement sets out what works today and how to tell us about anything that gets in your way.
What the theatre supports
Every page and control can be reached with a keyboard, and the space bar or Enter starts a spin. All text has a contrast ratio of 4.5 to 1 or better against what lies behind it. Pictures that carry meaning have text alternatives, and purely decorative ones are hidden from screen readers.
Reduced motion and sound on stage
If your device asks for reduced motion, the reel animations shorten and decorative movement stops. Sound stays off until you switch it on inside a production.
Where the theatre still falls short
The reels are drawn on a canvas. To make up for that, the result of every round is also announced as text, so a screen reader hears the award and the new balance.
