ACCESSIBILITY
AMERICAN SIGN LANGUAGE (ASL) INTERPRETED PERFORMANCES
Each season Royal MTC offers one ASL-interpreted performance for members of the deaf community. The performance is held at the Tom Hendry Warehouse, where good sightlines ensure patrons don't miss any of the action.
Please note:
-
Limited seating available.
-
When booking tickets (boxoffice@royalmtc.ca), those interested should identify themselves as members of the deaf community to ensure seating in the section where they can see the interpreters.
-
If no one has requested tickets in the ASL section 48 hours prior to the performance, the interpreters are cancelled.
Our next ASL-interpreted performance is A Doll's House on February 14th, 2019, 7:30 PM at the Tom Hendry Warehouse.
Age rating: Grade 9+
RELAXED PERFORMANCE
Each season, Royal MTC offers a relaxed performance, which is designed welcome audience members who would benefit from a more relaxed environment, including (but not limited to) those with sensory sensitivities, learning differences, autism spectrum disorder, and first-time theatregoers. Minor production changes are made to reduce startling effects and there is a relaxed attitude towards audience noise and movement. We invite all patrons to come, be themselves and experience live theatre!
Our next relaxed performance will be Made In Italy on Mar 10, 2019, 2:00 pm at the Tom Hendry Warehouse.
Age rating: Grade 9+
