Roxey Ballet is proud to offer a relaxed, sensory-friendly performance of the  classic Mowgli for children and adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder and other sensitivity issues or special needs. This performance is also great for families with young children. Performances are held at The College of New Jersey’s Kendall Main Stage Theater, 2000 Pennington Rd. Ewing, NJ 08628.


Tickets $20 - Special discounts offered on our Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram pages, and by joining our email list.

What makes it "sensory-friendly"?
A friendly, supportive environment for families with a loved one with special needs. Adaptations to the performance are slight, including:

lower sound levels
elimination of potentially startling special effects and lighting
house lights on at about 50%

PLUS, at this performance we have:

relaxed house rules -- you are free to get up, move around, and leave whenever you need to
allowed use of iPads and other electronics for therapeutic uses
volunteers scattered throughout the theater to assist and direct audience members as needed
quiet areas and activity areas in the lobby for taking a break
fidget objects and earplugs available
certified staff, ushers, and volunteers from a wide variety of autism service agencies, schools, and organizations
