10:00 am: Sensory-Friendly Performance of Annie10:00 am: Sensory-Friendly Performance of Annie – A Sensory-Friendly Performance is a performance in which certain production elements such as light and sound cues are adjusted slightly to even out or soften the sensory experience of the show, or removed altogether. The performance may also offer accommodations outside of the show itself, such as a relaxation/quiet area, an activity area, family/non-gendered bathrooms, and FAQs for parents and caregivers. Ushers for these performances receive some special training, and volunteers are on hand in the house and lobby to support families who need it. Audience members are welcome to bring snacks, toys, and fidgets (objects that can help soothe and focus individuals on the autism spectrum) into the theatre with them, and are welcome to exit and return to the theatre whenever they need to.
