Scheduled Audio Description is set in advance for select Public and Delacorte Theater season performances throughout the year. Using a single earpiece connected to an FM headset, patrons who are blind or have low vision can listen to trained audio describers give live, verbal descriptions of actions, costumes, scenery, and other visual elements of a performance. Audio describers start pre-show notes approximately 15 minutes before the performance begins. Tickets for events that will be offered with audio descriptions may be purchased by calling us at 212.967.7555, visiting our box office, or online. Tickets may also be purchased by visiting our audio descriptions partner website TDF.org.
Patrons who wish to listen to the description must pick up a headset. Headsets are distributed free of charge on a first-come, first-served basis at the theater entrance by speaking to a House Manager, Ticket Taker, or Usher before a scheduled audio described event.
Audio Description by Request is also available at The Public Theater. Requests to audio describe non-designated events must be received at least two weeks before the event by the Director of Audience Services at 212.967.7555 or [email protected]. These requests are subject to the availability of a describer and are provided at the discretion of the management.
