Autism-Friendly Performances
There are some live performances at the Rose that are "autism friendly." There is a pre-show waiting room for those who may get overwhelmed by crowds in the main lobby. Written social stories are given to audience members to help them follow along more easily and understand the plot. There are glow sticks that are used during the play to signal when something very sensory is about to occur (e.g. loud noises, flashes of light, etc.). There is also a private Q&A session after the performance. These occur about twice per season.
Comments/additional information about specialized programs:
During all performances, there is a cry-room available to the public where individuals can go to a sound-proof room and watch the play live through monitors.
