What is a relaxed performance?
A relaxed show is
designed to welcome anyone who might find visiting the theatre a bit
overwhelming. Pantomime is brilliant but the loud noises, flashing lights and
busy atmosphere isn’t right for everyone.
A relaxed show brings down the volume, keeps auditorium lighting
on at a low level throughout the show. It is expected that audience members
will move in and out of the auditorium as needed and even make use of the
quieter spaces around the building if required. There are no cuts made to the
show, we just make some small adjustments to the technical aspects so it’s a gentler
experience.
The audience are allowed to move around the auditorium, call
out, respond to the action. It is expected that children will want to move out
of their seats, comment on what is happening on the stage and shout out both
when they are encouraged to and when they are excited by what they are seeing.
Everyone is attending for their own reason, and it means there’s
a supportive atmosphere. The
relief for parents and carers of not having to say, “be quiet!” often means
that they can relax and enjoy the performance too, which in turn relaxes their
child.
Who is a relaxed performance for?
Relaxed
performances were originally conceived for people with additional needs who
need an environment where they can be themselves. They have the additional
benefit of being a lovely way to introduce children to theatre who may be a bit
unsure about coming into the theatre.
They have the additional benefit of
being a great way of introducing children who might be a little unsure, to the
magic of theatre.
