Mobile Sensory Theatre

The VROOM! Mobile Sensory Theatre is a traveling theatre experience designed for neurodivergent audiences and audiences with disabilities. VROOM! provides a safe and personalized experience by bringing the performance directly to homes, schools, direct service organizations, and more. Performances are immersive, interactive, and intimate, serving just one to two audience members and up to two caregivers at a time.

While performers are trained to work with neurodivergent individuals, caregivers are asked to be involved at every step to ensure the primary audience member feels comfortable and safe to enjoy the show.

Having launched in 2023, OCP is the first theatre to unveil this concept in the Midwest. Our first show, STARSHINE!, took audiences on a sensory-enriched journey through the galaxy. In 2023 and 2024, nearly 250 individuals and their carers traveled with us on this imaginative trip to the stars! Premiering in 2025 is our brand-new, original piece entitled Beatwood Hollow.

Full performances of Beatwood Hollow are best suited for school-aged children and adults. Performances usually last around 30-40 minutes but can vary significantly depending on the individual needs and interests of our audience members.

In addition to performances, the mobile sensory theatre can provide sensory exploration opportunities and activities for community members of all ages and abilities at outdoor festivals, special events, and more.

Thanks to Kate and Roger Weitz, the Weitz Family Foundation, Lozier Foundation, Immanuel Vision Foundation and the generous support of individuals and organizations throughout the community, there is no cost for families in the Omaha area to experience the show and opportunities for schools and other organizations are available at subsidized costs.
