ABOUT RELAXED RULES PERFORMANCES
A Relaxed Rules performance creates a more comfortable theater experience for audience members who may benefit from a less traditional setting. It’s especially welcoming for individuals with sensory sensitivities, autism, anxiety, or anyone who might find a typical theater environment a little tricky.
