RELAXED PANTO PERFORMANCE: 'IT'S THE OPPOSITE OF THE QUIET CARRIAGE ON THE TRAIN...'

Milton Keynes Theatre will host a relaxed performance of the Aladdin pantomime, on Wednesday, January 6, 2016.

'Suitable for both adults and children who would benefit from a more relaxed setting when attending the theatre, including people on the autism spectrum, people who make involuntary noises, people with learning disabilities, or just anyone who prefers a less formal environment when coming to see a show,' explains the venue.

'Of course the show is as good, as funny, as entertaining and as spectacular as at any other performance but the atmosphere in the auditorium is less formal than at a regular performance.

'It's the opposite of the 'quiet carriage' on the train – there's a relaxed attitude to noise, movement and a few small changes to the sound levels and some lighting effects are made.'

A relaxed performance of Peter Pan was hosted at the venue last year and was acclaimed not only by the audience, but also by those starring in the work: '..One of the most amazing shows I have ever done,' said George Ure who took to Twitter with his thoughts, 'Amazing to be a part of.'

Tickets for the afternoon performance – beginning at 2.30pm – are on sale now.
