Retired and Happy (Ken) 101 Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 Does the AK musical of Nemo have the same handicapped accommodations as does FOTLK? That is, is it also a theater in the round, and is there similar seating for wheelchairs around the front couple of rows? Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Katman1356...Jason 1,140 Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 Not sure on the way the wheel chair seating works but it is more of a traditional theater. Stage in teh front with Bleacher style seats for watching. I am pretty sure there are parking spots for wheel Chairs in the middle of the theater but not sure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GaDawgFan.....Kelly 799 Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 You enter from the top (back), so I have a feeling wheelchair seating is not in the front. They run and dance is the aisles though, so the front probably isn't the best place to sit anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Katman1356...Jason 1,140 Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 We might go see this again on this trip Ken. I will make this a priority and check things out for you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
h2odivers...Ray 952 Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 Ken, IIRC the kids would stay in their chairs and you would park them at the top of the sections. Kind of like I've seen at sports arenas. It shouldn't be a problem for y'all at all. I would highly recommend the show. The kids, as well you an Judy would really enjoy it.

h2odivers...Ray 952 Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 If you've been to see beauty and the beast it's the same set up. There's a bench next to an empty spot to put the chairs. I hope that makes sense. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Grumpy and Grandma 740 Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 HC seating is both in the middle top (between the upper and lower sections) as well as at the top. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 Yep - what they said. IMO for this show, sitting further back with an unobstructed view is actually better to take it all in. If you were right up in the very front you'd miss a lot of the action when they come out into the theater. I found a few pics showing the theater seating... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CCIntrigue...aka Gwen 547 Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 Last trip I entered the building via the handicap entrance on the right-hand side and was directed to the top level. We had a great view with no heads to peer over. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Retired and Happy (Ken) 101 Posted March 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2015 Thanks. Now we know what to expect. (And the Beauty and the Beast used to have wheelchair seating right in front of the stage. But we have been there since the rear seating has been in place.) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted March 23, 2015 Report Share Posted March 23, 2015 Thanks. Now we know what to expect. (And the Beauty and the Beast used to have wheelchair seating right in front of the stage. But we have been there since the rear seating has been in place.) We recently visited this show, and I can confirm that in addition to other locations in the theater, there is a handicap seating area right in the front center, next to the runway some of the actors use during the show. On the day we visited, they held space in that area until right before the show started, and then invited guests to sit there as it was not being used. On the other side of the runway from us, I noticed two sign language interpreters performing for some guests in the front row on that side. it's possible the seating I noticed is for guests with disabilities other than those using wheelchairs.
