What makes it "sensory-friendly"?
A friendly, supportive environment for families with a loved one with special needs. Adaptations to the performance are slight, including:
lower sound levels
elimination of potentially startling special effects and lighting
house lights on at about 50%
PLUS, at this performance we have:
relaxed house rules -- you are free to get up, move around, and leave whenever you need to
allowed use of iPads and other electronics for therapeutic uses
volunteers scattered throughout the theater to assist and direct audience members as needed
quiet areas and activity areas in the lobby for taking a break
fidget objects and earplugs available
certified staff, ushers, and volunteers from a wide variety of autism service agencies, schools, and organizations
Our Autism Response Team (ART) is specially trained to connect people with autism, their families, and caretakers to information, tools, and resources.
