Sensory Friendly & Relaxed Performances
Sensory Friendly and Relaxed Performances offer a supportive, non-judgmental environment where all patrons are invited to attend and experience the show as they feel most comfortable.
Supplemental materials will be available so that audience members can familiarize themselves with the characters and events of the play, including moments that might be intense or surprising. Sensory packets with fidgets and noise-cancelling head phones will also be available.
For Sensory-Friendly performances, some elements of the audience experience may be adjusted during these performances, often including leaving the house lights on slightly and giving visual indications before sensory or emotionally intense moments. Patrons are able exit and reenter during the performance,
For Relaxed performances of Dracula, the audience experience remains largely unchanged. While many parts of the performance require all audience members to stay seated, audience members are able leave and reenter the performance during specific, pre-determined times.
