Audience members should expect to be standing/walking during the performance. There are a very limited number of “non-participation” seats in the main performance space for those who prefer a voyeuristic experience.We can accommodate users with walkers and wheelchairs as long as the box office and ushers are made aware ahead of time. Periods of standing and moving around are broken up by longer scenes during which the audience is seated. There will be at least one chair in every performance space.
