Business Overview
To provide theater-related persons with practical training at a theater so that they can propose and implement methods of theater-going support for the visually impaired. The first session is to listen to people with disabilities. In the second session, we hear about the experiences of a theater company that has already been working on the project. The third session is to practice guiding the visually impaired. In the fourth session, advance commentary is made and recorded. In the fifth session, in order to practice the contents up to the fourth session, we held a round-table discussion after conducting guidance, advance explanation and audio guide experience in the theater.
