What is a Hearing Loop?

Hearing Loops allow people who wear
hearing aids to directly receive the
sound from the theatre’s sound system
in their own hearing aids, much like
Wi-Fi for laptops. If you wear hearing
instruments, and they have a wireless
receiver called a T-coil or Telecoil built-
in, you will benefit from the hearing
loop in our theatre. The T-coil program
is accessed by pushing a button on
your hearing aid. This T-coil setting
has to be activated before use. Please
consult your audiologist to ensure your
t-coils are properly adjusted.
If you do not have a T-coil equipped
hearing instrument, please feel free
to stop by the box office to pick up a
hearing assist device.
