The show, at 7.30pm on Friday 19 July, will utilise the same technology as a standard captioned performance for the deaf or hard-of-hearing, but the caption board will display the script translated into Polish.
Lisa Cagnacci, the theatre’s associate artistic director, said: “There’s a substantial Polish community in Scarborough – we’ve been showing Polish films in our cinema for some time now, and they’ve been very well attended, so we thought it was time to take it a step further.
