Sensory Friendly Screening of The Little Mermaid
June 10, 2023 @ 10:30 am
PG | 2h 15m | Fantasy/Musical
Director: Rob Marshall
Star: Halle Bailey
The Lindsay Theater and Cultural Center will host a sensory friendly screening of the live-action remake of The Little Mermaid at 10:30 a.m., Saturday, June 10.
The sensory friendly The Little Mermaid (135 minute run time) will screen with no trailers shown in advance to reduce “sit” time. Tickets are now on sale, with the group rate, $8.75 per ticket, available to all attending. Please email the Theater if you are unable to attend because of ticket costs.
Directed by Taylor Allderdice and Carnegie Mellon University graduate Rob Marshall, The Little Mermaid tells the story of Ariel, a beautiful and spirited young mermaid with a thirst for adventure who falls in love with a human and yearns to leave the sea for life on dry land. Halle Bailey is earning critical raves for her singing and portrayal of Ariel.
Sensory friendly screenings are specially designed for families who have children with special needs. The films are shown with lights up and volume down, and patrons are free to move around the theater or talk during the screenings. The Lindsay has offered several sensory friendly film showings since its inception, most recently for the smash box office hit The Super Mario Bros. Movie.
