Sensory-Friendly/Relaxed Performances

A sensory friendly or relaxed performance is designed to welcome individuals who may benefit from a more casual theatergoing experience, including those with sensory sensitivities, autism, anxiety, or other disabilities.

At BorderLight, these performances may feature softer lighting and sound, relaxed rules around movement and noise, and a supportive, judgment-free environment.
