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.
