Sensory Friendly performance
Saturday 10 December 3pm matinee show. A sensory friendly show is a performance that has been adapted in particular ways which make it more accessible for a range of potential audience members, including autistic audiences, as well as audience members with sensory or communication conditions or learning disabilities. In this session the intensity of sound and lighting will be reduced. Audience members can feel more free to move around, make noise, behave in non-normative ways, and generally react to the performance as they please. A “chillout space” will be available to audience members who may need a break from the show. If you require more information ahead of booking to support your visit please be in touch: info@womenscircus.org.au.
