We at Playwrights Horizons are excited to extend an invitation to a Touch Tour & Audio Described performance of Sarah Mantell’s In the Amazon Warehouse Parking Lot on Thursday, November 7th, 2024 at 7:30 pm.
About In the Amazon Warehouse Parking Lot:
As the oceans rise, a band of queer warehouse workers travel from job to job, running from the encroaching coastline. An unlikely love story, and a startling new work of speculative fiction, In the Amazon Warehouse Parking Lot is a quietly revolutionary tale of queer aging, chosen family, and the search for home in a volatile world.
About the Touch Tour & Audio Described Performance:
In the context of out theater productions, an audio described performance improves access for blind or low vision theatergoers by providing a live verbal commentary on the visual elements of a production, broadcast through a headset. Delivered around the dialogue, it describes action that is essential to the understanding of the story, as well as information such as the set, costumes, facial expressions, and visual jokes that might otherwise be missed. Our audio describer articulates the design and direction on stage via a personal listening device. Devices (both DLDs & ALDs) are available for check out at the concessions stand, photo ID required.
An optional touch tour precedes the performance, giving participants an opportunity to go on stage, meet the cast, and have a tactile experience with key set, costume and props. Service animals, 1:1 companions, and family & friends are welcome on the Touch Tours.To address any economic barriers, we have various ticketing options available, including complimentary tickets—we have reserved 30 free tickets.
