In early 2021, Danse-Cité invested in cultural accessibility for blind and partially sighted audiences by pairing a choreographic work with its live audiodescription. An audiodescription includes the writing of a narrative text and the presenting of it, orally, on the evening of the performance. An evening begins with the welcoming of the spectators and continues with a tactile visit of the stage and the scenic elements. Following the performance, a discussion takes place between the blind and semi-sighted spectators, the audio describers and the artists.
During the 21-22 pilot season, Danse-Cité and its partners are offering 4 evenings with live audiodescription. The aim is that this way of experiencing dance be made permanent. Danse-Cité is working to ensure that the service is thorough and recurrent.
