Every year, MAI presents relaxed performances. A relaxed performance (RP) refers to a show that is open to all, and may specifically address the needs of people who identify with a sensory or intellectual disability, a neurological or learning disability, people who experience anxiety, people with newborns or anyone who is uncomfortable with the conventions of a traditional theatre environment. There will be a more relaxed attitude to noise and movement within the theatre during the performance. The reception, soundscape and visual atmosphere can be adapted to create a calm and inclusive environment. Additional support tools are also made available to the audience, such as a detailed show guide, visual stories, familiarization visits, etc.
