Event Information

How does a relaxed Theatre Performance work? 

Taking children to a traditional theatre setting might not work for all families and especially for those who struggle to sit still and be quiet for 45 minutes. We offer a warm and friendly environment where young people can enjoy the show where parents can help their young ones to experience high quality theatre in local community settings.  
Imajica Theatre keep the performance level suitable for younger ears, and as we perform in the daylight hours we there are no black out scenes. There are no scary, jumpy noises or bangs that could frighten young people and no baddies in our show. The actors & the team do their best to settle any nervous guests you if your young ones would benefit from wearing along ear defenders please bring those along. 

A relaxed attitude to noise 

Young people often have questions while watching a show, they want to ask their parents questions. They become engrossed the story as it unfolds, and part of the reasoning process is to respond to the action on stage. ​
​We welcome parents to whisper to their young ones, answering those during questions & to help them enjoy the show.  The aim is to help them understand that in a theatre performance we try to watch the actors on stage, but our actors are trained to cope with both noise and movement during the show.  
We also provide lots of opportunities for young people to get involved in the show, to call out and join in. Our relaxed attitude to noise during the performance helps to settle those with burning questions feel valued. 

A relaxed Attitude to movement

Sitting still in a chair for a long time can be tricky for young people, so our work is filled with lots of opportunities for young people to get up, sing, dance and join in with us. Our shows run without an interval and last between 45mins & 1hr depending on the production. ​
We understand that some young people need to move around during the show outside of the planned participation elements. We kindly ask that the parents encourage them to return to their seats calmly and parents are welcome to enter and exit the performance venue as needed. This relaxed attitude gives parents the confidence to attend one of our performances their own child’s needs are considered and valued. 
We have created a quiet space for anyone who may need a moment or two away from the action at our Wilbury venue so please let the front of house staff know if you wish to use it. Before or during the show. 

 Sensory Storybook Companion 

Imajica Theatre can provide a storyboard companion for those who would benefit in a pre-show support guide. This can help to settle those who have anxiety pre-show & if a learning support for those with additional sensory processing needs.
