HEAR THE DIFFERENCE

HOW TO USE: Easy as 1,2,3!

1. Attach headphones.

2. Press the green button to turn on.

3. Press the Black “T” button for the Hearing Loop.

Adjust volume with the (+) and (-) buttons Info on Hearing Loop: • About 1 in 4 Americans —some 8.4 million—have hearing aids, according to a 2018 poll.

• A hearing loop magnetically transfers the microphone or TV sound signal to hearing aids and cochlear implants that have a tiny, inexpensive “telecoil” receiver. This transforms the instruments into in-the-ear loudspeakers that deliver sound customized for one’s own hearing loss.

• 69% hearing models—including in-the-ear models and conventional behind-the-ear models.

• A form of assistive listening, including hearing loops, come with portable receivers and headsets.

• What is a telecoil?

- A tiny coil of wire around a core that will induce an electric current in the coil when its in the presence of a changing magnetic field.

- Normally, a hearing aid "listens" with its microphone, then amplifies what it “hears”.

- A telecoil “hears” a magnetic signal which represents sound.

- On telecoil-equipped hearing aids and CIs, the wearer must “turn on or “switch to” telecoil mode. Some users prefer a mode that only uses the telecoil and not the microphones when they are in telecoil mode, and other users prefer a combination of telecoil and microphones.

Major Benefits: • Can use your own hearing aid that is geared to your particular needs.

• Don’t have to take extra time to go find hearing aid assistance or configure it to work best for you.

This is MJ The Illusion a must-see for all fans of music.

MICHAEL KNIGHT as Michael Jackson - While most tribute artists learn to imitate their idols by watching videos over and over again, Michael Knight took a different approach.

In 2013, Knight sought out Michael Jackson’s backup dancer and choreographer for Cirque du Soleil’s Michael Jackson IMMORTAL, Travis Payne and contracted him to help understand and recreate MJ’s dance moves.

Additionally, in 2014, Knight received vocal training from Jackson’s long-time vocal coach, Seth Riggs. This training led Knight into becoming one of the top three Michael Jackson Tribute Artists’ in the world today.

In addition to performing with Legends in Concert since 2013, Knight has performed hundreds of shows in performing arts centers, casinos, fairs, festivals and private events worldwide!

Knight performed to an audience of 60,000 people in 2018 at the Legendary Rose Bowl.

There will be a 15 minute intermission.

THE LEIMAN

Find peace and tranquility in this new garden of remembrance.

Flat Rock Playhouse’s founder, Robroy Farquhar, settled in this beautiful mountain region to celebrate the joys of nature and create a safe haven to practice his craft. In 2021, we continue to embrace the quiet serenity of our beautiful surroundings with The Leiman Garden of Remembrance.

David and Sharon Leiman donated this hallowed ground in memory of the six million Jews and millions of other men, women, and children murdered by Nazi Germany. The garden invites us all to remember, learn, reflect and NEVER FORGET. David and Sharon first came to Flat Rock Playhouse in 2016 for the all-star hit production, Million Dollar Quartet. We are honored and overjoyed to call this dynamic duo part of the Flat Rock Playhouse team of patrons, donors, and volunteers.
