This year, we will offer 2 performances with Relaxed Audio Description

RAD will be provided by the wonderful Kat Germain who developed this unique and child-centred approach to Audio Description for Relaxed Performances this way. 

Relaxed Audio Description, or RAD, is like a narrated guide during a live show. It can support understanding and meaning-making for Blind or partially sighted audience members, children and adults who are neurodivergent, have sensory sensitivities, or may just otherwise benefit from a little extra guidance during a performance. 

Through an earpiece—or sometimes by sitting near a speaker with a low volume—audience members hear RAD as it describes the performers, their actions, and occasionally highlights key story points. It may also offer a gentle cue before anything sudden or surprising happens, like a louder noise.

Because RAD is delivered through a quiet speaker or personal earpiece, it can be used, paused, removed, or moved away from at any time—whatever feels most comfortable.
