What is a Relaxed and Dementia Friendly show?
This show is designed to create an enjoyable and relaxed atmosphere for people who suffer from learning disabilities and people with dementia and their families at the theatre.
What happens at a Relaxed & Dementia Friendly show?
Flashing Lights - the amount of flashing lights will be reduced
Lighting - lights in the auditorium remain on at a low level during the show
Moving - leaving for a break and returning is encouraged if required
Noise - there will be a very relaxed attitude to moving around the theatre
Smoke Effects - Buddy uses haze effects which is a water-based mist, haze is used to create a general "smokey" effect on stage which enhances the lighting. It's very safe. This will also be reduced.
Volume - the overall volume of musical numbers and other amplified voices will be reduced
Please Note: Over 15's disco has been rescheduled to Friday 23 June
Final discos before the Summer break, last chance for a wee dance!!
