FROZEN Sensory Friendly Performance Announced at Playhouse Square

Playhouse Square and Disney Theatrical Productions will offer a sensory-friendly performance of Disney's Frozen on Saturday, September 3, 2022, at 1:30 p.m. at the KeyBank State Theatre. Performed in a supportive and judgment-free environment, this show will provide the opportunity for individuals living with autism and/or sensory processing disorders to enjoy the shared experience of live theatre.

Staff will be available throughout the theatre, and will provide helpful tools such as noise-cancelling headphones and fidget items. Slight adjustments, including altered lighting and reduced sound, will be made to the show. Food, drink, and iPads with headphones will be allowed in seats and designated quiet areas and activity areas will be provided.

Sensory-friendly performance tickets are significantly subsidized and range from $25-$55. ASL tickets are also available for this performance. For more information, including how to purchase tickets, please visit playhousesquare.org. Please note: All patrons must have a ticket regardless of age.

This sensory-friendly performance is presented by Denise G. and Norman E. Wells, Jr., with additional support provided by The Char and Chuck Fowler Family Foundation and The Wright Foundation.

Frozen, the Tony-nominated Best Musical, will play an exclusive five-week premiere engagement at the KeyBank State Theatre beginning Thursday, August 11, with performances playing through Sunday, September 11, 2022.
