Audio-Described Performances

There are $20 tickets available for Blind/low vision patrons, with the option to purchase a second companion ticket for $20.

Audio-described performances provide a live audio commentary by professionals from Audio Described Aotearoa who describe key visual elements of what is happening on stage, slipped seamlessly between portions of dialogue. This commentary is relayed to blind and low-vision patrons via an earpiece which is provided at no extra charge to those booking accessibility tickets.

Taking place 90 minutes before the audio-described performance, the touch tour is a free experience where patrons can walk through the set, touch props, feel costumes and familiarise themselves with visual and sensory materials in the performance. Touch tours are for visually impaired patrons and their companions only.

Every show has one audio-described performance. See a list of upcoming audio-described performances below or look out for the AD icon on the performance calendar on each show page.
