How relaxed performances make theatre accessible for autistic children
Oxford Playhouse shows how a performance of Spot’s Birthday Party was adapted to suit children on the autistic spectrum.
Special "relaxed performances" of children's theatre shows, adapted for children on the autistic spectrum, are being put on in several playhouses across the UK. Subdued lighting, quieter sound and a chill-out area outside the auditorium are just some of the changes making the performances easier for the children to handle.
