LOBBY VIEWING

  • Sometimes we need to take a break from the performance in progress. Not to worry - we have a dedicated video & audio feed in the lobby so that you don't need to miss any moments onstage.

INFANTS & BABES-IN-ARMS

  • Everyone entering the Sagebrush Theatre requires a ticket of some kind, including infants.
  • A "babe-in-arms" is an infant that meets all of the following criteria:
    1. is not yet walking; and
    2. is under the age of 3; and
    3. does not require an individual seat; and
    4. is accompanied by and held by the parent/guardian for the duration of the event
  • Any patron, or infant that does not meet the above criteria must have a regular seat assigned and ticket purchased, and are not considered under this policy.
  • “Babes in Arms” must be assigned an “infant admission pass” by the box office attendant at the door, and will be allowed entry, with the following restrictions:
    1. Patrons should present themselves at the box office window, to be issued an Infant Pass. Infant passes are issued by the box office attendant at the door, and are not issued in advance. For emergency purposes, the pass indicates the guardian’s name, contact information, seat location, and the date/time of performance.
    2. Infant passes are confirmed with the house management, for information for emergency evacuation.
    3. +, bags, blankets and accessories may not be taken to the seat and should be checked at Coat Check in the lobby.
    4. To avoid interruption to other patrons, we encourage guardians with infants to book seats close to an aisle for easy entry/exit.
    5. Guardians whose infants are disrupting a performance will be asked to “take a break” in the lobby. Guardians/infants re-entering from the lobby may be asked to wait for a suitable break in performance to be re-seated. The lobby features a TV with live feed from the stage, so that those waiting in the lobby may continue to observe the performance in progress.
    6. For the comfort of guardians and infants, we have a changing station, and a family/accessible/gender-neutral washroom available in the lobby.
    7. The Sagebrush Theatre does not have a booth available for parents to view a performance – rather the lobby video screens may be used.

RELAXED PERFORMANCES

  • A relaxed performance provides the opportunity to attend live performance for those who might benefit from a more relaxed theatre environment. These performances have been adapted to ensure that everyone feels comfortable and can enjoy the show. The adaptations that are made do not change the story or the art of the show, but rather, provide the audience with a more relaxed viewing experience.

Who are Relaxed Performances for?

  • Relaxed Performances are for everyone! Relaxed Performances are designed with the needs of people with sensory sensitivities in mind, including people living with autism, and anxiety. It can also include people who live with Tourette’s, parents with children, and many other groups of people who may have access requirements, or simply like the inclusive environment.

What you might expect from a Relaxed Performance:

  • The lights and sound have been changed to make things less bright and quieter
  • The doors to the theatre will remain open and the auditorium lights will remain on at a low level
  • You are free to come and go from the theatre space
  • You are free to move around during the performance
  • You are free to use communication boards or other electronic devices (we ask that you not take photos)
  • A relaxation station will be available in the lobby should you need a break during the show.

Currently, only some of our clients offer relaxed performances. If you would like to find out which upcoming shows are offering them, please contact the Kamloops Live! Box Office.

Still have questions? We would love to hear from you! Contact the Kamloops Live! Box Office at 250-374-5483 or klbo@kamloopslive.ca.
