audio description

Our Audio Described service for Blind and partially sighted patrons describes the action as it happens on stage, whilst ensuring that there is never an intrusion into the dialogue or song being performed. It is given during the performance by an experienced Describer. Discreet and user friendly Sennheiser in-ear headsets or necklaces are available for this service. If you would like to reserve a headset or necklace, please tell the Box Office when booking and one will be held for collection just before the performance.
