Captioning Services

Closed Captioning is available via GalaPro without advance request required for each performance of the following titles in the 2023-2024 season: Moulin Rouge, Wicked, Aladdin, Hamilton, Beetlejuice, Six, To Kill a Mockingbird & Les Miserables. All other shows are available upon request. To request that closed captioning services be made available for an event not listed here, please contact the Ticket Office (404-881-2300) when securing tickets, or the Guest Experience Manager (404-881-2120). All requests for events not listed here should be submitted no later than 2 weeks out from the event date. 

Galapro opens the curtains to a universal cultural experience by delivering automated subtitles, closed captioning, dubbing, audio descriptions, and amplification to the user's own mobile device. All content is provided in real time, using voice recognition technology, developed specifically for theater and live performances. 

How does it work? Simply download the app and choose from our participating theaters. You can search by city or current location. Once you choose your preferred theater you will be able to see the show offered. Subtitles & Closed Captioning users can customize their screen by choosing brightness and font size. Subtitles or closed captioning will appear as soon as the show starts and does not interfere with neighboring seated guest's experience. 

Guests who either do not have a smartphone, or choose not to use their personal, mobile device are able to check out venue provided tablets at the Assisted Listening device stand in the Spanish Room. 

Restrooms

Accessible Restrooms are located in the Administrative Offices off of the Main Lobby.  These restrooms are each a private room with the sink in the same room.  All of the restrooms are equipped with automatic doors.  Any of the Fox Theatre staff can direct any patrons to these facilities.

Elevators

The main lobby elevator is located just to the right, once you pass through our front doors. It will take you to the First Dress and Second Dress levels. Once you reach those levels you will need to either climb or descend a section of stairs in order to reach your seat in the balcony. There are no accessible seats located in the balcony. All accessible seating is located exclusively on the Orchestra level.
