Sensorium Theatre is Australia’s only company dedicated to creating live shows specifically designed for young audiences with disabilities. Founded in 2010 and based in Western Australia, Sensorium aims to spark the imaginations of children with disabilities by providing custom-made sensory theatre experiences. Their productions, such as Whoosh! and Oddysea, offer immersive multi-sensory experiences that engage all senses, allowing children to see, hear, smell, touch, and taste the story as it unfolds around them.
With a history of enchanting thousands of young people with disabilities, Sensorium Theatre has gained recognition both nationally and internationally for their inclusive theatre-making approach. Their work has been showcased at prestigious venues such as the Sydney Opera House, the Arts Centre Melbourne, the Lincoln Center in New York, and The Artground in Singapore. Through collaborations with schools like Kenwick School, Sensorium Theatre ensures that their shows and programs are tailored to meet the specific needs of children with a range of access requirements.
Committed to providing a safe and secure environment for all audience members, performers, and staff, Sensorium Theatre has implemented a Child Protection Policy & Procedures to ensure the well-being of everyone involved. Their dedication to inclusivity and accessibility is evident in their partnerships, workshops, and programs, which aim to give children with disabilities the magic of live performance while offering professional development opportunities for artists, educators, therapists, and carers.
