The Laboratory Theater of Florida to offer sensory-friendly performances starting June 22

By Staff | Jun 9, 2023

The Laboratory Theater of Florida will offer sensory-friendly performances of each show during Season 15.

Starting with the June 22 performance of Save Hamlet, one performance of each run will be modified to adhere to sensory-friendly practices.

These modifications include:

• Lower sound and light levels with all strobe light effects removed.

• House lights will remain on at a low level throughout the performance.

• Audience members may stand and move around, including leaving and reentering the theater, as needed.

• Our north patio is designated as a quiet spot during performances.

• Trained volunteers will be on-hand.

• The theater encourages guests to bring their own sensory supports, including earplugs, fidgets, and tablets. We ask that you respect the other audience members by muting the light and sound and using headphones.

Sensory-friendly performance dates:

• June 22 at 8 p.m. – Save Hamlet

• Aug. 17 at 8 p.m. – POTUS: Or, Behind Every Great Dumbass are Seven Women Trying to Keep Him Alive

• Sept. 28 at 7:30 p.m. – Noises Off
