Audio Described performances and Touch Tours – Sleeping Beauty
10th December 2022 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
An enchanting dream of a pantomime
In a magical fairy kingdom, happy plans are underway for Princess Rosa’s christening. But a bad fairy has been missed off the invite list, and descends on the party casting a wicked curse. So when 18 year old Rosa pricks her finger on a spinning wheel, and falls asleep for many years, it takes a brave prince to wake her up, to discover a very different world. But the bad fairy is up to more mischief, and Rosa is soon setting off to the rescue, aided by her dippy Nanny and family, to ensure true love can find its way… This timeless tale will be lovingly told in classic Hornchurch style with an outrageous dame, side splitting slapstick comedy and fantastic original music played by the finest of actor musicians.

What is an Audio Description performance?
An Audio Described performance gives those who need it a verbal commentary interspersed with the actors’ dialogue, providing information on the visual elements of a production as it unfolds. This enables a blind or partially sighted person to experience and enjoy a performance on an equal basis to other audience members.
This commentary is relayed via a headset which can be picked up from our Box Office team. Before the performance begins there is a short introduction which explains the atmosphere, costumes, characters and action.
Please mention when booking that you would like a headset for your visit, we will have it waiting for you on arrival.
