SENSORY FRIENDLY
PERFORMANCES

All of our performances have been designed to be sensory-friendly and open to children and families with sensory processing issues. Audience members can expect the following sensory-considerate production features at each performance:

• Sound levels that are never too loud.
• No abrupt/startling sound or light cues.
• House lights that remain at half-on throughout the performance so that the theater is never fully dark.
• A firm “no shushing” policy, where nobody with sensory-processing issues is asked to quiet down during a performance.
• Quiet areas in the theater lobby for any guests who need a break from the performance.

As a cherished production enjoyed by audiences around the world, and based on literary works that were many children’s first introduction to reading, it’s imperative that The Very Hungry Caterpillar Show remains accessible and welcoming to all. Everyone should be able to experience the magic of live theatre at their own comfort level, and we’re proud to provide these accommodations at each performance.
