Hennepin Arts is proud to offer a Sensory-Friendly performance of Wicked.

This performance is specifically designed for individuals with sensory differences, cognitive or developmental disabilities and those who benefit from a relaxed theater environment, along with their families and caretakers. With the partnership of Fraser, the show will be performed in a supportive and judgment-free environment.

  • Lower sound levels, especially for startling or intense sounds.

  • Theatre lights on at a low level throughout the performance.

  • Standing and movement accommodated in spaces throughout the theatre.

  • Designated sensory break areas throughout the theatre.

  • Trained volunteers and professionals on hand during the entire performance.

  • Sensory supports (fidgets, earplugs, noise-canceling ear-muffs) available in the lobby before the show.

  • Online and printed guidance materials about the show experience.

  • Audience members are welcome to bring their own handheld sensory tools (e.g. fidgets), seat cushions, comfort objects and extra support items to the show.
