ADA deliberately introduces different means to make art accessible to everyone. After some training programmes in "Audio Description" and "Theatrical Interpretation", these two pilot assistive methods have already been used to expand our Playback Tuesday to a more diverse audience.

"Audio description" is a means of providing access of the visual images for people who are blind or have impaired vision. Through the narration of a trained "describer", visual images are translated into words, enabling people with visual impairment to enjoy the performance using a different sense.
"Theatrical Interpretation" is more than simply translating a script into sign language. Theatrical interpreters strive to retain the flavour of the original work, incorporating the actors' characterizations into an artistic offering.
Since May 2009, ADA has held 20 Playback for ALL, with around 2,200 audiences. Also, on 14 November 2010, this is the first time that Playback for ALL was held at Black Box Theatre, JCCAC.
After the show on August 2012, one of the theatrical interpreter-Bosco had a interview by NOW TV to share the feeling of being the theatrical interpreter.
