Sensory & Family Friendly Showings
Sensory & Family friendly movies are for individuals living with autism and families with small children, to enjoy their movie going experience in a safe and accepting environment. In order to provide a more comfortable setting for individuals on the autism spectrum and those with young children, we keep the auditorium lights turned slightly up and the sound turned slightly down. The movie (typically G- or PG-rated) will start promptly at 10:00 a.m. Because some have strict, special dietary needs, families are permitted to bring their own gluten-free, casein-free snacks from home.

Additionally, audience members are welcome to get up and dance, walk, shout or sing - in other words, our no talking policy will not be enforced unless the audience safety is in question. This is especially nice for those with young children new to the movie-going experience. Being able to relax and enjoy your movie-going without worrying if someone will complain or be disturbed by noise or movement is wonderful. Sensory & Family Friendly movies are a great opportunity to enjoy a movie in a climate of acceptance and understanding.

We don't have room for hate. This town is a melting pot on its own. We are a community of all different people with different shapes, colors and sizes and multiple abilities. We circle around those in distress and keep them safe. We are a community of welcome diversity and we don't intend to be anything but that. We are Southbridge!

This was from a couple years ago, but still relevant.

SOUTHBRIDGE — Going to the movies may seem like a relaxing, fun family outing, but if your child has autism or developmental disabilities, it can be a high-stress event, according to Michelle M. Cook who says other people sometimes look at her autistic daughter Morganne as if she were an alien.
