Union County Brings Interactive, Sensory-Friendly Bubble Show to Rahway on Sunday, January 27

The Union County Board of Chosen Freeholders is pleased to bring a sensory-friendly performance of the dynamic, highly interactive and uniquely funny Bubble Trouble to the stage at the Union County Performing Arts Center in Rahway on Sunday, January 27 at 2:00 p.m.

“The Freeholder Board is proud to present the sensory-friendly performance series, which is specially designed to increase access to the arts and provide opportunities for individuals of all abilities to experience the wonders of science in an inclusive and welcoming environment,” said Freeholder Chairman Sergio Granados.

A bubble volcano. Bubble roller coaster. A kid in a bubble? Jeff Boyer takes bubbles to the max in this one-man bubble extravaganza. It’s the craziest, most creative bubble show around. Jeff juggles bubbles, sculpts and builds with bubbles, makes fog-filled bubbles and more. Mixing comedy, music and a unique level of community participation, he engages and delights audiences of all ages.

The Sensory Friendly Theatre series began in 2012 as an initiative of Freeholder Alexander Mirabella. It is designed according to guidelines that help reduce disturbances for children who experience heightened sensory sensitivity. It has been supported by the Freeholder Board every year since then.

For each of the Sensory Friendly performances, the environment at the Union County Performing Arts Center is adjusted to provide a sensory-friendly, comfortable and judgment-free space that is welcoming for all families.

Autism Friendly Spaces implements the supportive atmosphere at performance. For more information on what to expect at a Sensory Friendly Theatre performance, visit ucpac.org/sensory-friendly-theatre.

All tickets are $8.00 per person and can be purchased through the Union County Performing Arts Center at ucpac.org or by calling the Box Office at 732-499-8226.

The Union County Performing Arts Center and box office are located at 1601 Irving Street in Rahway.
