As part of the Summer 2019 renovations, Lincoln Community Playhouse installed new Induction Loop Systems in both the Oliver T. Joy Mainstage and Studio Theatre. This system allows audience members with a hearing aid or hearing assistive devices that have a “t-switch” or “t-coil” to turn that on and hear direct feed from the theatre’s sound board.

Tele-Coils and Hearing Assistive Devices are tiny coils of wire that when in the presence of a changing magnetic field such as those created by an induction loop, induce a small electric current. That small current is then processed by and transmitted as sound directly to the listener through the speaker in the hearing assistive device. This system bypasses the microphone and amplification function of the device, allowing listeners to hear the performance without having to deal with the background noise and other competing sounds.

Please check with your community audiologist to ensure the t-coil is properly activated.

We do not cancel performances, except in an extreme weather or health emergency.

No. The Playhouse is not available for rent/use due to the facility demands of our rehearsal and production needs.
