Our Audio Described performances are offered for people who are blind or have low vision, have other sensory disabilities, or for anyone who may need assistance to experience the fullness of our stories.
"One of the most moving and enlightening experiences I have ever had." - Donna, 2025
Bangarra's process of crafting our Audio Description script runs deep — it begins at the very first creative gathering, when ideas are still forming and the story is finding its voice. From that seed, we listen, observe, and weave language that grows alongside the work.
We want you to experience every breath of this story, every shift of light and sound, every heartbeat of movement — authentically, as it was meant to be felt. Each word is chosen with care to honour the essence of the work, so that its spirit can be experienced through words as vividly as it is through dance.
"… we had a significantly enhanced and delightful experience." - Julia, 2024
Our Audio Description offers a spoken word commentary that gently guides the listener through all aspects of the production - the physicality of the dancers, the colours and textures of the set, costume and lighting design, all interwoven with references to the Cultural foundations and storytelling that shape the work. The commentary is delivered through a free listening set and headphones, available for collection from the foyer upon arrival. We ask that you arrive 20 minutes before the performance begins to allow time to settle in.
Pre-show notes are also available prior to the performance. These notes provide insight into sections that cannot be described live, due to Cultural protocols or sound levels within the work — ensuring every layer of the performance is shared with integrity and respect.
We’re proud to offer this unique experience as part of our commitment to inclusive storytelling, ensuring that everyone can access and connect with the spirit of Bangarra’s work.
"…an experience so moving, so magic and so inclusive. I wish to express my appreciation and joy." - Liz, 2022
