ACCESS

Spoken Space is a BSL Interpreted Performance.

During a British Sign Language (BSL) Interpreted performance an interpreter stands at the side of the stage, clearly visible to the audience, and interprets the spoken word and sound effects for D/deaf audience members who use BSL. In performances with integrated BSL, the interpreter will be part of the action on stage.

If the particular show you are attending is marked as BSL Interpreted performance, please let the Box Office you are booking to use the interpreter and they will seat you appropriately.
