Making theatre accessible for all our patrons
Wheelchair Accessibility
Parking spaces adjacent to the Federal Courthouse on Southbridge Street are reserved for vehicles displaying a disability placard or license plate. The police detail stationed in front of the theatre will be happy to assist you. The Federal Plaza Garage also has several spaces reserved for accessibility, so companions are more than welcome to drop-off in front of the theatre and then park in the garage.
An elevator inside the theatre provides access to lower and upper lobbies for orchestra and lower balcony seating. Accessible bathrooms are located on each level. Please note, there is no elevator to upper balcony seating.
Spaces in the theatre are reserved near the front of the orchestra for patrons who use wheelchairs and for their ambulatory companions. When purchasing tickets, please be sure to mention if any accommodations are required, including low vision, hard of hearing and limited mobility. It is the intent of the theatre to comply with all ADA provisions where practical.
