Theatre by the Lake in Keswick has announced a programme of accessible performances for spring–summer 2023, with audio description, BSL and captioning for people with visual and hearing impairment, plus guaranteed socially distanced and relaxed performances.
These include TBTL’s seasonal highlights Around the World in 80 Days, The Lost Spells, Blonde Bombshells of 1943 and The 39 Steps.
Its co-production of Tuning In will include audio description and captioning on all performances. Tuning In follows the story of Reagan, who comes home from a date covered in blood.
The theatre is also partnering with Graeae, the theatre company dedicated to championing Deaf and disabled artists, to present Crips with Chips, a night of short plays that will be captioned and audio described.
Audiences are encouraged to tell TBTL about their access requirements in advance of visiting the theatre by filling out a simple form on the web site.
