Sensory-Friendly Performance of Disney's NEWSIES

Disney's NEWSIES is a film turned Tony Award-winning Broadway hit. Based on the true story of newsboys who strike against unfair working conditions in turn-of-the-century New York City, this musical delivers a timeless message about fighting for what's right that's perfect for the whole family.

The sensory-friendly performance provides a welcoming environment that includes:
• Smaller audience size.
• Reduction of loud or jarring sounds and flashing strobe lights.
• Modification of the house lights during the performance.
• Accommodated house rules: audience members are free to talk or move during the show.
• Quiet areas available, staffed by educators experienced with the care of students on the autism spectrum or with other developmental disabilities.
• Noise-cancelling headphones for use during the performance, if needed.
• Social stories outlining the theatre experience.
• Money-back guarantee: If you realize before the performance that a trip to the theatre will not be ideal for your family on that day, we will offer a refund.
