MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

SPECIAL MOVIES FOR SPECIAL PEOPLE

Special Showings for Special People

SENSORY-FRIENDLY SPECIAL SHOWINGS FOR FAMILIES AND INDIVIDUALS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS



Thomas Theatre Group understands that sometimes it is difficult for families with special needs children to attend movies together. Special Showings for Special People is a program that serves families and individuals with special needs such as autism or other challenges, who seldom attend movies.

These sensory-friendly showings feature open captioning, lower sound and the lights turned up to encourage families with children who need accommodations to share the experience of seeing features at a theatre.



Our first Special Showings for Special People will be Monday, December 29 at 10:00 a.m. Regular matinee pricing applies. This applies to all movies playing.



Contact Thomas Theatre Group at (906) 774-5404 with questions or for more information.
