Accessibility Services and Interpreted Performances:
If you require wheelchair accessible and/or companion seating, or have any other hearing
or vision needs, please let us know when you reserve your tickets so that we can make sure
you visit to our theatre is an excellent one. Discounted tickets are available for patrons
with disabilities, and their guests.
Performances Interpreted in American Sign Language & Assisted Listening Devices:
We offer American Sign Language interpretation presented by theatrically trained certified
interpreters. Leading up to an interpreted performance, interpreters see the play multiple
times, practice with recordings, and determine sign names for the characters in the play.
We are happy to provide a script in advance to audience members who request this service.
Contact the box office at theatreboxoffice@depaul.edu to request a
script. We also offer ListenUp! personal listening devices for each performance. These
assistive listening devices are available free of charge to patrons upon request.
Audio Description Services:
The performance of Oresteia on 5/12 at 2:00 PM will include a live audio-description of the visual and physical events on-stage for patrons who are blind or have
low vision. We also invite you to join us that day for a pre-performance program with a
touch tour, which begins at 1 PM in the Watts Theatre lobby. The touch tour program will
include information about the characters and design choices that add to the world of the
play. Patrons who are participating in the audio-described event may also request the
playbill in Braille, large print, and audio formats. Please indicate interest in the Touch
Tour when you order your tickets. Call our Box Office at (773) 325-7900.
