Slide one has a blue background with open theatre curtains. At the top of the page, yellow spotlights shine down. Text in the page centre reads ‘Relaxed Pantomime Performance at Birmingham Hippodrome’. Below this are graphics of musical notes, a theatre ticket, an action sign and ear defenders.
Slide two contains four images taken from our visit to the relaxed performance. Image one is of audience member heads looking towards the pantomime curtain reading ‘Robin Hood’. Image two shows a red bucket containing sensory toys, noise-cancelling headphones and fidget items. Image three is of Robin Hood-themed colouring pages, with felt-tip pens in a tray beside. Image four shows one of the quiet spaces available. To the side of two beanbags are fidget toys, ear defenders, mood lighting cubes and a basket.
Members of the Sensory Street team attended a relaxed performance of Robin Hood at @brumhippodrome as part of our research exploring neurodivergent adults’ theatre experiences. Designed with sensory accessibility in mind, these performances offer a flexible, welcoming environment. 👥🙌
