The Magic Pudding: The Opera Relaxed Performance

15 May 2026 1.00pm - 2.00pm

A relaxed performance provides a calm environment for audiences with elements of the production adapted to reduce anxiety or stress. Lighting and sound levels are adjusted to soften their impact; making noise and moving around the auditorium is welcome during the performance; and there are designated ‘chill-out’ areas in the foyer.

This environment is ideal for audience members with autism spectrum disorder, Down syndrome and those sensitive to sensory variance.
