The award-winning Gazillion Bubble Show, one of the longest-running family productions Off-Broadway, is thrilled to announce the launch of its first official sensory-accessible performance on Saturday, April 26, 2025 at 4:30pm, at New World Stages in New York City, in recognition of World Autism Month. Designed for guests with sensory needs and neurodivergent individuals, this special show ensures that individuals of all abilities can experience the magic of bubbles in a comfortable and inclusive environment.
For nearly two decades, the award-winning Gazillion Bubble Show has captivated audiences worldwide with its mesmerizing bubble artistry, immersive laser effects, and high-energy musical experience. The new sensory-accessible performance will offer the same awe-inspiring spectacle but with thoughtful modifications to create a gentler experience, including:
- House lights remain on at a dimmed level throughout the show
- Reduced laser effects for a softer visual experience
- Lowered music volume to minimize sensory overload
- Limited bubbles blown into the audience to maintain a predictable environment
*All other signature elements of the show remain intact
“Our show has always been a place where families come together to experience joy and wonder,” said Melody Yang, founder and performer of the Gazillion Bubble Show. “As both a mom and a performer, creating a space where children and guests of all abilities can feel safe, included, and free to enjoy the magic of bubbles means so much to me.”
In partnership with KultureCity®, a national nonprofit dedicated to sensory inclusion and accessibility, the show will now offer a limited number of Sensory Bags at both its Sensory Saturday show and regular weekly performances. These bags—equipped with noise-canceling headphones, fidget tools, a visual feeling thermometer, and a KultureCity VIP lanyard to help staff identify guests with additional needs—are designed to offer extra comfort and support, recognizing that sensory sensitivities vary for each individual.
The Sensory Bags are free of charge and available on a first-come, first-served basis at the merchandise booth on the 2nd floor of New World Stages (outside Stage 2 Theater), beginning 30 minutes before showtime.
The first Sensory Saturday performance will take place on Saturday, April 26, 2025, at 4:30 p.m. at New World Stages in New York City. Tickets are now available by visiting https://www.broadwayinbound.com/shows/the-gazillion-bubble-show or https://gazillionbubbleshow.com/
