NT at Home Subtitles and Access provision

Captions

All of our plays and video content on National Theatre at Home have closed captioning for d/Deaf and hard of hearing audiences.

The captions will not appear on the plays or trailers automatically. You will need to turn them on each time you watch anything.

For more information about how to turn on captions, please visit the Vimeo Help Centre.
 

Audio Description

You can watch National Theatre plays Amadeus, The Cherry Orchard, Julie, Othello and Phedre, as well as Coriolanus from the Donmar Warehouse and Yerma from the Young Vic with Audio Description.

Each Audio Described performance is accompanied by Intro Notes (in MP4 format) that describe the story, set, cast and costumes for audiences to listen to in advance of watching the production.

You can find more information about our Audio Description offer here.
 

BSL

We made War Horse available as a pilot play for this new access provision. We will be working with our customers and industry stakeholders to gather feedback before making decisions about BSL programming in the future.
