Sensory Friendly Performances

Woodstock Arts understands that kids with Autism Spectrum Disorders have unique and varying  sensory issues. Sensory accommodations are balanced with preserving the genuine experience  desired by all children and families. 

Sensory Friendly Performance Accommodations: Not all aspects of the show may be modified  due to their relevance of the story, the show’s artistic integrity, or production constraints.  House lights will stay dimly on for the entire show. There will be a few modifications to lighting,  sound, and the performance. Woodstock Arts has cut out the use of black-outs, strobe lighting, and  loud, abrupt actions. For additional sound reduction, Woodstock Arts provides noise-cancelling  earmuffs in our lobby. 

Please be Advised: Entering our theatre can be challenging for audiences. Added Woodstock Arts  Volunteers will help provide a supportive and welcoming environment. Seating is unassigned,  but our Visionaries can assist you with finding a good, safe space to enjoy the show. During the  show, audience members are free to talk or move, or “take a break” in our Calm Zone or in the  lobby.
