RELAXED PEFORMANCE
Relaxed Performances offer an accessible option to audience members who may benefit from a more relaxed environment in the theatre or those who may have not normally felt comfortable attending a live performance. This may be ideal for people with sensory concerns, autism spectrum disorders, learning disorders, dementia, families with babies or younger children, or those that may need to be able to leave the theatre frequently during the performance.
The theatre will be dimly lit but not completely dark, there is a relaxed attitude toward audience movement and noise, and there may be some changes in production to reduce startling effects or noises. A Relaxed Performance allows you to enjoy the show, to be yourself, and to experience live theatre in a friendly and supportive environment!
Babes-in-Arms (Ages 0-2) may attend the performance at no cost, however every person entering the theatre must have a ticket assigned for safety regulations and seating capacity. Please contact the Box Office at 780-425-1820 to book a Babes-in-Arms ticket.
Please note that Bear Grease is a musical and there will be live singing and rapping onstage. There will be music levels that cannot be brought down significantly in volume. Please keep this in mind when purchasing a Relaxed Performance ticket for Bear Grease.
Join us from 7:30-7:35 p.m. in the theatre to learn about the Relaxed Performance and to see some sneak peaks at moments in the play. Or, if you’d prefer a “Spoiler-Free” experience, enjoy a drink in the lobby and we’ll invite you in at 7:35 p.m. for the performance.
CLOSED CAPTIONED PERFORMANCE
A closed-captioned performance uses real-time captions to represent spoken dialogue and other important audio elements during the show through through a personal captioning device (personal phone or a Citadel iPad available at the coat check)
