Join Peter Pan and friends as they look for hidden treasure on the high seas. The show is perfect for children aged 3-11, parents and grandparents.
The fun kicks off on Saturday 16th December and runs until Christmas Eve, with 13 regular performances. Tickets range from £11-£13 (plus booking fees).
In addition there are two sensory-sensitive performances on December 17 and 21 that may be suitable for people who have sensory sensitivity or people living with autism, Tourette’s, ADHD or similar conditions. Parents with young families may also prefer a relaxed performance where they don’t need to worry if children become restless during the show. A relaxed performance does not mean that the show is different, we simply make small adjustments to make the experience more comfortable. These include:
· Chill Out Room: a space is made available for audience members who need a bit of quiet time before and during the performance.
· Meet the Cast: the audience can ‘meet’ the actors after the performance, which helps to close the circle of understanding for people who have difficulties with flexibility of imagination.
· Lighting and special effects are changed: for example, for example, lighting effects will be reduced, and house lights may be kept on low to reduce anxiety.
· The theatre can accommodate ‘familiarisation visits’, which is an opportunity for the audience to look inside the auditorium prior to the show.
· Throughout the performance there will generally be a more relaxed attitude to noise and to the audience moving around the building. All cast and staff are briefed to this effect, so that there is no undue concern over unexpected noises and movement.
Doors open 45 minutes before each performance. Children 1 and over must have a ticket, except for babes in arms (under 1 years old). Children must be accompanied by an adult. Refreshments will be available at the venue.
