Theatres Work On Greater Access For Deaf, Blind

“Audio description is a program for the blind that translates visual images into spoken language. While it isn’t new – Wheelock Family Theatre pioneered the service in New England nearly 20 years ago and a number of area theaters, including the Huntington, New Repertory Theatre, Citi Wang Theatre, Boston Center for the Arts, and Central Square Theatre, offer some access programming for the blind and deaf – Broadway Across America is increasing access, as are other cultural organizations in the region.”
