Surtitles are generally provided for opera and plays performed in a foreign language, and they are English translations of what is being said on stage, rather than being verbatim text. They are intended for hearing audiences, and do not typically include the information that would make them accessible, such as character names, and descriptions of offstage noises and sound effects.
