A select number of Omaha Performing Arts performances are designated as sensory inclusive for those with sensitivities to light, loud noises or surprise elements of a show. These productions are presented in a relaxed, welcoming environment. Subtle changes to technical elements may include:

• low house lights
• the removal of strobe and fog effects
• avoidance of sudden changes in amplified sound 

Guests may use a break area and are welcome to bring headphones, ear plugs, security objects, and tablets into the performance venue. 

For performances that are not modified to be sensory inclusive, the Holland Center and Orpheum Theater are still equipped with on-hand sensory kits and noise-canceling headphones for patrons to checkout at the time of arrival. Kit materials include sunglasses, verbal cue cards, and fidget items. Please see an Ambassador on duty for assistance with kits.
