FTA values the diversity of its audience, artists and workforce, and is committed to presenting dance and theatre that is inclusive and accessible to all members of society. We are working to ensure that every person, regardless of ability, may have equal access to our shows in a safe, respectful environment supportive of human dignity.

The venues where FTA presents performances are, for the most part, accessible for people with reduced mobility.
Upon presentation of the Companion Leisure Card (CLC), we offer a free ticket to the person accompanying them.

Shows in foreign languages are presented with French and English surtitles.

Surtitles can be useful for people who are deaf or hard of hearing.
