Assisted Listening Devices

The Theatre offers the Sennheiser Listening System for patrons who are hearing impaired. Headset use is complimentary and subject to availability.

ASL Performances

ASLSelect American Sign Language-interpreted performances are available for hearing-impaired and deaf patrons. Seating is located in a reserved section close to the ASL interpreters. Because space is limited, we ask that only one guest accompany each patron who requires an interpreter. Additional guests and ASL students may purchase tickets elsewhere in the Theatre and—if space permits—are welcome to move into the ASL section on the day of the performance.

Tickets for these special performances are $37.00 each.
