Everyone's Welcome
From the moment you arrive until you are headed home, we want The Muny to be a place you never have to worry about coming to, regardless of limitations. Now, more than ever, our mission, passion and tradition remain the same: making theatre accessible to all.
Access Services Sponsored by:
Free Seats
Nearly 1,500 free seats are available at every performance, in the last nine rows of the theatre. Gates open at 7:00pm.
Accessible Seating
Accessible seating is available in all terraces of the auditorium and offered at every price level, including our Free Seats. Fold-away and companion seats are available.
Accessible Parking
All parking lots at The Muny include accessible parking. These reserved spaces are available on a first come, first served basis and require a state-issued hang tag or license plate. If there are no accessible spaces available, the lower lot may be used as a pick-up and drop-off point for passengers requiring assistance.
Wheelchair Assistance
Patrons in wheelchairs may receive assistance between the Lower Lot and the auditorium. Usher service begins at 7:30 p.m. and continues until 8:25 p.m. Upon request, ushers may check on patrons during intermission. After the show, ushers will assist patrons getting back to their parking lot.
Dining
Café One and several picnic tables throughout the grounds are also accessible for all patrons.
Restroom & Water Facilities
Accessible restroom facilities are located inside the auditorium. Family restrooms and accessible water fillers are located on either side of the theatre near the lower concession stands.
Assistive Listening Devices
Patrons requiring assistive listening devices may check them out at no charge. Devices are located at the souvenir stand located near Café One on the lower east side of the theatre. Earphones and neck loops are also available. Need help finding them? Just ask an usher in blue.
Interpretive Services
Monday and Saturday night performances include special accommodations for the D/deaf and hard of hearing and blind and partially sighted. This includes sign language performances and audio descriptions of the action on stage. Special listening devices are required for the audio experience and may be checked out at the souvenir stand located near Café One on the lower east side of the theatre. Contact Lindsey R. Galanti, Director of Audience Experience, at [email protected] to learn more about interpretive performances.
Infant Care Suite
This air-conditioned space is a welcome retreat for toddlers who need a break or hungry babies. Our Infant Care Suite has gliders for nursing, a changing station and vanity sink, and a mini-fridge available for storing perishable baby needs for the evening.
To access our Infant Care Suite, find a Head Usher in white polo / black pants. It is located on the lower west covered walkway of the theatre [left side if you’re looking at the stage from the seats].
First Aid
The Muny has a nurse on duty during every performance. If you require medical assistance, please locate an usher in blue or a head usher in white.
Emergency Number
The Muny’s evening emergency number during performances is (314) 367-9191. If you need to be reached during a performance, please leave this emergency number and seat location with your service or sitter.
A Spotlight on Accessibility
From the very beginning, The Muny has been committed to making theatre accessible to all, regardless of physical or socioeconomic ability. From wheelchair pushers to free seats to interpretive services and more, you hopefully have witnessed this mission in action. These unique, free services give all patrons the opportunity to experience every production from the comfort of their own seat. We are proud of our commitment to accessibility, thrilled to share this through-the-years glimpse at the services The Muny offers.
