BSL INTERPRTED PERFORMANCES

We offer British Sign Language (BSL) interpreted performances.

These have an interpreter standing on the stage during the performance, signing the dialogue and sound effects.

When booking for a BSL performance let the Box Office know so they can give you a seat with the best view of the signer.

CAPTIONED PERFORMANCES 

Captioned performances are particularly helpful to D/deaf, deafened and hard of hearing customers and customers whose first language is not English.

Similar to subtitles on the television, the dialogue on stage is displayed on caption units in the auditorium. Captions also include sound effects, off-stage noises and character names.

When booking for a captioned performance let the Box Office know so they can give you a seat with the best view of the caption box.

ASSISTANCE DOGS

Assistance dogs are welcome at the Octagon. Fresh water will always be available for them. They are welcome to stay in the auditorium during the performance or the dog can be looked after by our staff. If you plan to bring an assistance dog, whether they’ll be staying with you in the auditorium or you'd like us to care for them during the performance, please inform our Box Office at the time of booking.
