VISITS FOR PEOPLE WITH SPECIAL NEEDS

AUDIODESCRIPTION

Through our website, we provide info on the amount of text a performance contains. In many cases it is possible to understand the performance without hearing or understanding the text, as circus is a very visual art form. We ask the artists to send us the texts of performances where there is a lot of text or where the text is necessary to understand the performance.

More info here.

SPECIAL RATES

Everyone can enjoy the free programme.

For paying performances, we charge fair rates with a reduced rate for -26-year-olds and those with an EDC card. Miramiro does not work with UIT-pas or reduction rates. In close consultation with a number of social organisations, we invite socially vulnerable people to enjoy the ticketed performances.

Would you like to introduce your organisation to us? Feel free to send an email to miramiro@miramiro.be .

RELAXED PERFORMANCE

This year’s programme includes a relaxed performance: Permit, oh permit my soul to rebel – Side-Show (BE).

Relaxed performances, or low-stimulus performances, are primarily intended for people who might find daunting to visit a theatre. They are designed to be accessible to everyone, especially to people on the autistic spectrum, people who make involuntary noises or anyone who would benefit from a more relaxed environment. If you want to know in advance what to expect en how to get here, download this booklet.
