Productions can be made more accessible for Deaf and hard of hearing (DHoH) dancers, performers, and audiences. This article provides ideas and guidelines on how to include and accommodate them. Reflecting on our experiences developing the dance theatrical production of "Within Dreams," we describe the need for making space for DHoH individuals in various areas of dance productions in higher education: in participation, patronage, and the use of American Sign Language (ASL) in dance pieces. Our hope is that elucidating what we learned makes it easier for other companies and universities to explore and incorporate thoughtful and successful relationships between sign languages, deaf, and dance.
