The Boston Pops is pleased to offer this sensory-friendly concert for the first time.Sensory-friendly concerts are designed for all families with children or adults diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder or sensory sensitivities.
In addition to musical selections from John Williams and Aaron Copland, the concert will include The Composer is Dead, music by Nathaniel Stookey with text by Lemony Snicket – a madcap whodunnit where an inspector must sift through an entire orchestra of suspicious instruments to solve the crime.
While the music on stage remains the same, the following modifications are made to create a welcoming environment at Symphony Hall: lower volume and lighting levels; relaxed house rules; minimal crowds to allow for movement; available noise-reduction headphones; designated quiet room and support spaces; modified food concessions; and staff and credentialed autism therapist volunteers trained to meet families’ needs.
We look forward to providing an enjoyable performance in a friendly space.
