Relaxed Environment performances aim to create a space for everyone, especially people who would benefit from a more informal experience. At these performances we do not make any changes to the technical elements of the production. Some of the things that will be in place include:
You are welcome to bring your service dog into the auditorium. Let us know, and we can reserve an appropriate seat for you.
We provide read-along scripts for all of our main house productions. These are copies of the script which enable you to read the actors’ words as they are spoken or sung, and provides information such as sound effects and music. Read-along scripts may also be useful for people who speak English as a second language, or when actors speak with strong accents. You can ask for one of these at Box Office when you arrive, or email us before your visit at [email protected].
We have some scheduled Captioned Performances. Captions are either projected, or provided to your mobile device using The Difference Engine. The captions will provide the actors’ words as they are spoken or sung, and information such as sound effects and music. Captioning may also be useful for people who speak English as a second language, or when actors speak with strong accents.
Audio description is a live verbal commentary providing information on the visual elements of the production as it unfolds. It describes action that is essential to an understanding of the play's story, as well as other visual information such as the style and design of a production, facial expressions and visual jokes that a blind or visually impaired member of the audience might otherwise miss. The description is delivered in between the dialogue of a performance and is picked up by the audience member wearing a special lightweight headset that is easy to use.
There will often be a touch tour available before an Audio Described performance, free for ticket holders. A Touch Tour may be useful for blind and visually impaired audience members to familiarise themselves with the set, props and costumes ahead of the performance.
If you need a guide to meet you from a local tube station, bus stop or taxi stop to help you make your way to the venue, we can often arrange for a steward to meet you. Please do contact us in advance to let us know.
If you feel you might need help to get around, have any ideas about what we could do better or just want to know more about our access facilities, please contact us using one of the following methods:
