The theatre has recently claimed that their plays will be accompanied with subtitles which are available on tablet computers. They won't disturb your neighbours and will show subtitles in white on softly highlighted black background.
For foreigners there will be subtitles in English, French and German, later they plan to make translations into more languages. To get a tablet you should just call the ticket office before the performance to book it in advance and leave your passport as a deposit.
