39 Steps Live Theater Audio Description

Audio description allows those who are visually impaired to more fully enjoy a live performance through a verbal description of the stage production. The visually impaired patron wears a single earpiece connected to a personal headset receiver. A trained audio describer provides live, verbal descriptions of actions, costumes, scenery and other visual elements of the live performance, which is transmitted to the headsets so only those wearing them hear the supplemental description as well as the dialog. This service is offered free of charge to visually impaired patrons, but it must be requested in advance with ticket purchase.

The performance of “39 Steps” put on by Blue Barn Theater has been designated to offer audio description to visually impaired patrons who have purchased tickets. Please call the Blue Barn Theater box office to request the service.
