At the box office, a variety of differently colored stickers are available, designed specifically for individuals with anxiety and sensory processing challenges. Since some performers interact directly with the audience, there are stickers that indicate when such interaction is not desired. Other stickers allow interaction but clearly signal that physical contact is not welcome. While attending the show generally implies consent to being photographed, there are also stickers that expressly prohibit taking photos, for example, on stage. These options help create a comfortable and respectful environment for everyone involved.
