SEN Performances
While the magic of the North Pole remains the same, we adjust the environment on this day to ensure a comfortable and inclusive experience for guests with autism, sensory processing sensitivities, or learning disabilities.
How is this show different?
For our SEN performance, we make "relaxed" adjustments to the production to reduce anxiety and sensory overload:
- Adjusted Lighting: The auditorium lights (house lights) will remain on at a low level throughout the show. We also remove any sudden strobe effects or harsh flashing lights.
- Reduced Volume: The overall volume of the music and SFX will be turned down to a more comfortable level.
- A "Relaxed" Atmosphere: We have a "no-shushing" policy. Movement, vocalisations, and coming and going from the auditorium are perfectly okay.
- Reduced Capacity: We sell fewer tickets for this performance to ensure there is more room between groups and less crowding.

Cannot praise the staff enough for how welcome they made us feel and how in character they all were. There were a few issues when we went (there were power cuts) but the staff managed to keep the magic going and the little ones didn't … More …More -
Absolutely fantastic, nicely immersive and a whole lot of heart and effort goes into it. The singing and dancing conductor stole the show!!

If you are looking for a Christmas outing for the family with a focus on children's entertainment, this experience was quite simply amazing, our grand children absolutely loved it and where mesmerised by the acting and experience. … More The whole experience from the photos, bells and trinkets that where handed out. The whole experience made for a very memorable day. Their are toilets once you move through to the experience. Their is a disability lift to get peoe to the first floor. Parking was an issue on the day and we ended up parking at the premier in for a small cost. Highly recommended

The whole experience was amazing and magical for all not just the kids. All the team was so helpful even when we had a power cut cutting things short. They adapted an even allowed us to rebook for free and also gave us 25% discount code. … More …More
