All guests are welcome to enjoy Broadway In Detroit shows! We have several services to ensure guests with disabilities have an enjoyable experience. We make it a priority to welcome and accommodate all guests.

For guests who have sensory processing needs:

Broadway in Detroit has partnered with KultureCity® to enhance our ability to assist and accommodate guests with sensory needs. Our goal is to provide an inclusive experience for all guests during all events. We strive to raise awareness of the needs and challenges faced by individuals with sensory processing needs by supplying our staff with annual training and by offering the resources and accommodations below to our guests.

KultureCity® Sensory bags
KultureCity® Sensory bags containing special KCVIP badges, feeling thermometer, fidget tools, and noise-canceling headphones are available for checkout (at no cost by leaving an ID) at our coat check located past the main bar on house left of the Fisher Theatre lobby. Sensory bags can be used for all abilities of all ages.

Weighted Lap Pads
Weighted lap pads are available upon request (at no cost by leaving an ID) at our coat check located past the main bar on house left of the Fisher Theatre lobby. Limited quantities available.

Quiet Areas
Quiet areas are located all the way to the left of the lobby behind the box office leading to the stairs to the mezzanine, and on the loge level to the left of the elevator.

Headphone Zones
Headphone zones (loud areas) are located in the entire auditorium.
