HMS Pinafore ENO Relaxed Performance
All aboard HMS Pinafore for Gilbert & Sullivan’s hilarious musical tale of a nautical love triangle. The comic opera navigates the tricky waters of class, rank, patriotism and power, in their signature slapstick style.
In ENO’s 2025/26 London Coliseum season, there is a Relaxed Performance of HMS Pinafore on Thursday 29 January 2026, 2pm. ENO’s Relaxed Programme is intended for anyone who needs a more informal setting to enjoy our shows, primarily people with disabilities, health conditions and other access needs. Light and sound elements are altered, and the house lights are on (but low) throughout the performance. Chill out spaces are provided, and the show is available to watch live outside of the auditorium.
There is an open-door policy, meaning if you need a break, you can go in and out of the auditorium as much as you like. Our ENO Engage team will provide sensory and learning pre-show activities, such as seeing and touching props and trying on costumes from past opera productions. There will also be photo opportunities – you may even see some special appearances from performers in the show.
Art Forms: KS1 - KS5+, SEND; Music, Drama.
Cost: Under 21s go free. Adult/Teacher tickets are £29
Dates: Thursday 29th January, 2pm
Location
London Coliseum, St Martin's Lane
