Overview

Last night was the latest visit to this venue to see a captioned performance of Dirty Dancing. Being deaf, in order to follow a show I need captions/subtitles, and thus I try to take every opportunity to visit theatres that offer this access. This is my local theatre and luckily they offer captions on a number of shows. If you have any kind of hearing loss, no matter how mild, you should try a show with captions. You will be amazed how much they can assist you. For me its the difference between only following a performance between 30 and 50% of the time and with captions I follow 100%.
