Relaxed Performance of Birmingham Hippodrome's SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARFS Set for 1/30

Birmingham Hippodrome has been selected to join this year's Big Give Christmas Challenge with a focus on raising money towards the theatre's first ever 'relaxed performance'.

The relaxed performance of the UK's biggest pantomime Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs takes place on Thursday 30 January 2014 at 1pm starring John Partridge, Gok Wan, Stephanie Beacham and Gary Wilmot.

It is specially designed to ensure that children on the autism spectrum, plus those with learning difficulties or sensory and communication disorders have the opportunity to enjoy a Live Theatre experience. The relaxed performance is designed to make children - many of whom will be first-time theatre goers - feel comfortable and to reduce any anxiety. Some of the loud and bright elements of the pantomime will be reduced, strobe lighting and pyrotechnics will be removed, and staff and cast will accommodate movement and noise within the auditorium.

Anyone wanting to support the Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs relaxed rerformance at Birmingham Hippodrome can make a donation on the Big Give website www.thebiggive.org.uk from 10am on Thursday 5, Friday 6 or Saturday 7 December, or by visiting www.birminghamhippodrome.com/biggive.
