Sign-Interpreted Services
The Theatre can arrange for sign-interpreted performances upon request. Patrons should contact the Box Office no later than ten days prior to the performance so that proper arrangements may be made. Sign interpretation of the designated performance will be arranged in all instances in which a request for a signed performance and a purchase of a ticket(s) for that performance results. For certain engagements, a signed performance will be designated in advance. If a request for an interpreted performance is received later than ten days prior to the performance, the Theatre shall make reasonable efforts to provide interpreter service. The quality of the interpretation depends on adequate preparation time, so earlier notice is encouraged. Interpretation shall be provided with no additional cost to the customer requesting the service. Seats are held in the front side orchestra for patrons wishing to purchase seats close to interpreter. These tickets are available only through the Box Office and will be released for sale to the general public ten days prior to the performance or when no two adjacent seats are available for public sale.

Assistive Listening Devices
Listening devices for the hearing impaired are available for all performances to assist with amplification and clarity. A radio-transmitted receiver and lightweight headset that amplifies the sound on stage is used for those with low to moderate hearing loss who may or may not use a hearing aid (Neck loops are available for patrons who use hearing aid devices.). This device can be used in all sections of the Theatre. Use of a listening device is complimentary. A driver's license, passport, or major credit card is required as deposit. The devices are available by contacting an usher upon entering the Theatre.
