Fall back into a season of vibrant performances this November
We welcome the new month with accessible performances, hip-hop for the children of Seattle, and a grant opportunity for artists.
The Seattle arts scene is expanding its commitment to accessibility, recognizing that the power of performance should be for everyone. For organizations across the city, making the performing arts accessible goes beyond simply meeting ADA requirements; it’s about creating an inclusive space where each audience member feels welcome and has the opportunity to engage fully in the arts. Accessible performances make this possible, from ASL interpretation and audio descriptions to sensory-friendly environments that bring everyone into the experience.
If you’re looking for shows that offer a more inclusive experience—whether that’s theatre, dance, or musicals—there are some fantastic upcoming performances. These events not only celebrate the talent on stage but also honor the diverse needs and preferences of their audiences, so everyone can enjoy the joy and magic of live art.
On the Stage
Get ready for a whimsical week of witches, imaginary friends, and Seattle favorite Justin Huertas lighting up the stage.
