More Access Shakespeare for the 2013/14 Season
As we strive to make our world-class productions accessible to all, we are pleased to announce the expansion of our Access Shakespeare programs—audio-described, sign-interpreted and, for the first time, open-captioned performances for our three core subscription plays, as well as for our 75-minute abridged Shakespeare for families. Subscriptions and single tickets are both available through our new Access Shakespeare “Pay-What-You-Can” program.
