New accessible family theatre performance coming to Flowerfield Arts Centre

New accessible family theatre performance coming to Flowerfield Arts Centre

Mon, February 27, 2023

Flowerfield Arts Centre in Portstewart will host two performances of a new accessible family theatre show by Replay Theatre Company during March.

Prism, written by Gary Crossan and directed by Andrew Stanford, will take the audience on a journey through a retro sci-fi multiverse, packed full of pulsating synth, glorious video design and vibrant lighting effects (don't worry, no strobes!).

Perfect for young stargazers (7+ years old) and nostalgic adults alike, accessibility is at the core of this show, and audience members who have a physical disability or other accessibility needs can enjoy a full theatre experience with captioning at every performance, pre-recorded audio description of key visual moments delivered as part of the sound design, and BSL interpretation provision.

The performances will take place on Wednesday 22nd March at 7:30pm (BSL-interpreted, visual descriptions and captioned) and on Thursday 23rd March at 11am (visual descriptions and captioned).

In the show, inter-dimensional travellers, Dawn and Dusk, are stuck in an empty void dimension for far too long.  When Dusk devises a radical solution to their problem it hurls them into our dimension and has catastrophic consequences for their onboard guide and best friend, known as Prism.

Tickets cost £5 per person with a family ticket available for £18, which admits four. 

Bookings can be made at www.flowerfield.org or call the Reception team on 028 7083 1400.
