Audience was very friendly and definitely interacted with us. They were willing to participate in the training and ask questions. Clearly, the audience was disability aware! The only issue was getting to the LookingGlass Theatre. It was challenging finding the place and accessible parking can be tricky. Overall, I enjoyed the experience because the audience was so friendly.

I came here again yesterday for an event. The presenters did an excellent job as always, and everybody was very friendly and conversational. I've not seen a show here yet but hopefully that will change.

The entire front house staff participated in a Disability Awareness Training. The rehearsal space and offices are fully accessible. The staff jumped into role plays with enthusiasm and we had a great Q&A at the end. Thanks Lookingglass Theatre!
