The Braille Legacy - Audio Described

The Braille Legacy - Audio Described article image

The Braille Legacy is a new musical based on the true life story of Louis Braille, a gifted blind boy who just wanted the same chances in life as everyone else. His vision was a language that would go on to give literacy and independence to millions of blind people throughout the world.
In Paris in the 19th century, blind people were victims of profound discrimination. Louis Braille, a bright young mind with a mad dream, arrives at the Royal Institute of Blind Youth, searching for the same chance as everyone else: to be free and independent. But he soon discovers that people and things aren’t always what they first seem. By sheer determination and courage, he stumbles upon something revolutionary: a simple idea, a genius invention, a legacy.

Brought to life by Titanic and Ragtime director Thom Southerland, The Braille Legacy is an empowering tale of perseverance and hope on a journey into the light.
