Events for Individuals with Special Needs 08-09

Evening at the Opera for the Blind and Visually-Impaired Each year, 150 members of the blind and visually-impaired community are invited to a special outreach event at the Wednesday evening dress rehearsal of our May opera. At 6:00, our CEO talks with the group about the opera, passes around prepared fabric samples of costumes (with Braille labels), and shares information about the set. Braille translations and large print programs are available, as well as headsets through which a play-by-play description of stage action is broadcast from our translator's booth.  Each opera production features Braille translations and large-print synopses.

A Concert for Children with Autism and their Families Utah Symphony & Opera offers an annual concert for children with autism, and their families. We present this concert because we know that many families cannot attend cultural events together because their autistic child (children) acts in distracting ways. We feature our Opera Apprentice Artists with the Utah Symphony on the Capitol Theatre Stage in a special concert where everyone understands the difficulty of keeping these children quiet in their seats. This concert is FREE but registration is required.  Register below for the 2009-10 event.
