Relaxed Performance

Relaxed Performances are for anyone who would benefit from a more relaxed environment – this can include but is not limited to people with autism, sensory sensitivities, learning disabilities, dementia as well as those living with anxiety or who have experienced trauma. We maintain the creative integrity of each show, making minor modifications to sensory elements like lighting and sound. Children and families may come and go should they need to.
