Notes about physical inclusion

Any additional information about physical accessibility you feel would be helpful to people with disabilities and their families
As far NYC theaters go, this theater is pretty accessible, you just need to know where to go. For this particular venue it's easiest and most accessible to enter the theater on 65th street. That entrance is in all the pictures I took. The facilities manager I spoke with said that's one of the things he recognizes and appreciates about this database. It's a place where people can go to find out about how to get around.
