VISUAL IMPAIRMENT

RELAX PERFORMANCES
The Relax performances offer a more adequate experience for persons with disabilities, or who wish to access the performances in more flexible conditions. In concrete terms, this means that the artists perform as usual, but some technical adjustments can be made if necessary (reduced special effects or lowered sound effects) and the audience welcome is much more flexible (house lights on, possibility to enter/leave and express oneself at will…)

Next Relax performance

Since January 2017, the four partner theatres of the Grand 8 (Arsenic, La Grange de Dorigny, Théâtre 2.21, CPO) each offer Relax performances with the support of the Forum Handicap Vaud, who acknowledge and encourage this endeavour.
