Arizona Theatre Company seeks to transform the lives of every Arizonan through the power of theatre. We offer a variety of accessibility services so that all of our patrons can enjoy our productions.
Wheelchair Access:
Arizona Theatre Company offers wheelchair access to every one of our events. A staff of trained volunteers will assist you with directions and any necessary accommodations. When purchasing your tickets, please ask to reserve wheelchair seating or request other assistance. The balcony in Tucson at the Temple of Music and Art is NOT accessible by wheelchair. There are nine steps into the balcony from the second floor.
Large Print Programs:
Programs in large print are available for each of our performances.
In Tucson, they are located in the lobby.
In Phoenix, they are located at the accessibility desk across from the lobby bar.
We HEAR You!
We’re delighted to share several sound improvements you’ll notice when you return to the theatre this fall, including additional microphones, sound mixing improvements, assistive listening device options at every performance, and open captioning at a select performance of every show.
Sound Supervisor Mathew DeVore and his team will be approaching all six shows in the 2022/2023 Season as they would musicals to catch more of the nuances of dialogue and vocals. Additionally, we’ve added several highly sensitive microphones on the stages and in the air that are designed to handle further distance for various applications in theatre. Read More
Assistive Listening System:
Assistive listening devices (ALDs) amplify and clarify sound by cutting down or eliminating ambient noise. ATC offers Temple of Music and Art patrons hearing assistance via the Sennheiser MobileConnect app. You can download the app at home on your smartphone and use your phone to connect to the system in the theatre. Hearing devices are available for those without hearing aids or a smartphone at no charge on a first-come, first-served basis.
