Creating a Welcoming Environment

Welcome to Dance Factory's Sensory-Friendly Plus! program, where we believe that everyone deserves the chance to enjoy the arts. As an Arts & Entertainment - Performing Arts venue, we are committed to providing inclusive experiences for individuals of all abilities.

The Magic of Sensory-Friendly Performances

Our sensory-friendly performances are specially designed to accommodate individuals with sensory sensitivities, including those on the autism spectrum or with sensory processing disorders. We understand that some traditional theater environments can be overwhelming, which is why we have created a space that promotes comfort and enjoyment for all.

What to Expect

During our sensory-friendly performances, we make several adjustments to create a welcoming environment:

  • Reduced noise levels
  • Dimmed theater lights
  • Relaxed house rules
  • Designated quiet areas
  • Trained staff members knowledgeable about sensory sensitivities

Supportive Resources

For individuals who may benefit from additional support, we provide a variety of resources:

  • Social stories and visual schedules
  • Pre-show tours and meet-and-greets with cast members
  • Sensory kits with noise-canceling headphones, fidget toys, and more

Our Commitment to Accessibility

At Dance Factory, we strive to make the performing arts accessible to all. We want everyone to have the opportunity to experience the transformative power of live theater. Through our Sensory-Friendly Plus! program, we are breaking down barriers and ensuring that our performances are open and welcoming to individuals of all abilities.

Community Partnerships

We actively collaborate with local organizations and support groups to gather insights and feedback from the community. By listening to their needs and creating meaningful partnerships, we continuously improve our sensory-friendly performances and ensure that they meet the diverse requirements of our audience.
