RELAXED PERFORMANCES
Relaxed performances are open to everyone, but the environment has been specifically adapted for individuals with an Autistic Spectrum Condition, those with sensory and communication disorders, those with learning disabilities and anyone who would benefit from a more relaxed environment including pre-school children and people with dementia. These performances are adapted in a variety of ways in order to reduce anxiety and ensure a safe and enjoyable live theatre experience. There is a relaxed attitude to audience noise, the lights in the auditorium remain on low throughout the show, sudden loud noises are softened and audience members are free to leave and re-enter the auditorium at any point. There is a Chill Out Room, where a space is made available for audience members who need a bit of quiet time before and during the performance.
We are offering relaxed performances for:
A Small Enclosed Room on Thursday 10th July at 7.45pm (Irving Studio)
