Sensory-Inclusive Performance: Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus!
From publicly posted calendar Checked 5 hours ago
About this event
One of 258 upcoming events at Broward Center for the Performing Arts, and 6,664 across Fort Lauderdale.
This Sensory Inclusive Performance is intended to create a welcoming and supportive environment for children and adults on the autism spectrum as well as individuals with other sensitivity issues or developmental disabilities. To create a sensory-Inclusive setting, slight adjustments have been made to the production including reduced sound levels, no flashing or strobe lights and minimal special effects. An area adjacent to the theater has been designated as the Quiet Room with specially trained therapist to provide audience support. Whatever you do, don't let the Pigeon star in his own musical production! With a script written by Mo Willems, the creator of the #1 New York Times best-selling, Caldecott Honor award-winning "Pigeon" picture books, and featuring music by Deborah Wicks La Puma (Elephant & Piggie's We Are in a Play!), Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus! The Musical! is even more fun than staying up late and having a hot dog party! It's not easy being the Pigeon-you never get to do ANYTHING! But when the Bus Driver has a crisis that threatens to make her passengers (gasp!) late, maybe that wily bird CAN do something. Featuring an innovative mix of songs, and feathers, Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus! The Musical! is sure to get everyone's wings flapping. Presale tickets are available for $10, with prices increasing on January 30, 2027. Video Walkthrough – Plan Your Visit – TBD Character Guide – TBD Going to the Theater Social Narrative – TBD Lap Tickets are $5.00 and available for purchase for children 12 months and under only at the Broward Center's AutoNation Box Office. Everyone in the theater must have a ticket. The Broward Center's sensory-inclusive programming is made possible through the generous support of The Batchelor Foundation, BBX Capital Foundation, The Gore Family Memorial Foundation Trust, Nicklaus Children's Health System, and The Taft Foundation.
