About the event
Join the Colorado Symphony and Phamaly Theatre Company for a holiday themed cabaret! This relaxed performance will feature a live string quartet of Colorado Symphony musicians and actors from Phamaly Theatre. Sing along with your favorite holiday tunes and enjoy heartwarming stories and monologues. These sensory concerts are geared towards those in our community who need a more sensorially relaxed environment to enjoy a performance. Complimentary fidget tools are available for all attendees, and the show will include accommodations such as glowed houselights during the concert, reduced venue capacity, captions, an adapted program, and an available quiet room. ASL interpretation and audio description will also be available.
What makes these performances sensory-inclusive?
These hour long performances are modified to create a welcoming and supportive environment for children and adults on the autism spectrum as well as individuals with other sensitivity issues or developmental disabilities. Performers and LTAC staff work together to ensure there are no startling noises or visually over-stimulating components. Our team keeps sound levels lower than normal and keeps the lights in the audience higher than normal, ensuring audience members can see each other. Audience members are free to come and go if need be (there is always a “quiet room” available) and are asked to wave hands rather than clapping.
