Performance is available the third Sunday of each Professional Equity Play in the series.
One of several "Access" services offered by CSC to Americans with disabilities, Open Captioning is a general term used to describe text displayed simultaneous to live speech, dialogue or performance, and is designed to assist patrons with hearing loss and disabilities. Also referred to as "OC," it is derived from analogue, closed captioning, which began as text-based access to broadcast programs. The term "caption" is used to define text associated with a picture. Open Captioning does not require the user to have any special equipment for viewing the text and are always "open" to anyone. [More]
