We’re excited to announce two improvements to help make Pacific Theatre more accessible!
Our extremely generous sponsor, NexGen Hearing West Broadway is our partner in obtaining a hearing loop for the theatre.

What is a hearing loop?
A hearing loop system wirelessly transmits audio from the mixing console discreetly and conveniently to the recipient’s hearing aids when the “T-Coil” function (found on most hearing aids or hearing aid remotes) are switched on.
How does it work?
A dedicated loop amplifier sends the audio signal into a very thin copper foil that has been invisibly installed under the seats in the auditorium. Anyone within the “looped” area can switch on their hearing aids to the “T-Coil” position to wirelessly receive a very clear and engaging signal directly to their earpiece.
If you don’t use a hearing aid, a limited number of receiver units are available for you to borrow for the show!

We have also introduced relaxed performances – our first relaxed performance is our Christmas Carol matinee on December 8th at 2pm.
Relaxed Performances are designed to welcome audience members who will benefit from a more relaxed sensory experience and casual environment, including (but not limited to) patrons with an Autism Spectrum condition, a sensory processing disorder, or a learning disability.
And lastly, a reminder of our financially accessible dates: our previews are always pay-what-you-can, and Wednesday night performances are only $20!
Thank you for coming to Pacific Theatre and joining us in our commitment in bringing as many people as possible into this magical world.
