  • elimination of potentially startling special effects and lighting

  • house lights on at about 20%

  • you are free to get up, move around, and leave whenever you need to

  • a reduced length of performance

  • allowed use of iPads and other electronics for therapeutic uses

  • volunteers scattered throughout the theater to assist and direct audience members as needed

  • quiet areas for taking a break

  • fidget objects and earplugs available

  • Story boards, visits before or after public hours, meet-a-seat program are available upon request.
