Being Heumann, Sensory-Friendly Screening • The Little Theatre

Events

An actress playing a young Judy Heeumann, wearing a red coat and floral skirt in a wheel chair in a road. She is holding her hands up in front of a truck to mtion it to stop. White text over the image reads BEING HUEMANN

Move to Include is proud to present a sensory-friendly screening of this film that adapted Judy Huemann’s memoir “Being Heumann.”

Being Heumann, sensory-friendly screening, screens at The Little Theatre on Sunday, November 15 at 12 p.m. A full list of screening times + dates are below.

Based on a true revolution. Scrappy, defiant, and done being treated like a burden, Judy Heumann turns her outrage into a revolution. In 1977, she and more than 100 disability rights protestors send a very loud message: The system is broken—not us.

For the sensory-friendly screening, the auditorium lights will remain on and dimmed, and the sound has been turned down to provide a safe and accepting environment. Audience members are welcome to get up and dance, walk, shout, sing, or do anything they feel they need to do in order to be comfortable, unless the safety of the audience is in question.

Buy tickets here.
