THE LION KING regularly schedules sign-interpreted performances in association with Theatre Sign.

We regularly schedule captioned performances of THE LION KING in association with STAGETEXT. Captioning is a way of converting the spoken word into visible text that provides deaf, deafened and hard of hearing people with access to live performance.
