Relaxed Performances
We offer performances that are more relaxed for all those who benefit from a show where loud noises are reduced, elements of surprise are kept to a minimum and moving around the auditorium is not a problem.
Relaxed performances are carefully created for people with learning disabilities and their families or carers so that everyone can enjoy the wonder of theatre at Nottingham Playhouse in an environment that is comfortable and supportive.
The house lights will be partially up throughout and ‘chill-out’ areas will be available before, during and after a performance. If a familiarisation visit would be helpful, we would be very happy to accommodate this.

Tickets for our studio shows are £11.50, and for the main stage are from £13.50 for those requiring a relaxed performance, otherwise standard pricing applies. To redeem this online, please email access@nottinghamplayhouse.co.uk for a promo code.
