Once Upon a Time… takes listeners on a variety of odysseys; both Saturday matinees (May May 25th and June 1st) are 70 minutes in length and include selections by John Williams, Beckel’s From the Earth to the Moon and Beyond, and The Composer is Dead—music by Nathaniel Stookey with text by Lemony Snicket—a contemporary whodunit that has quickly become a children’s classic.

The performance on June 1 is a Boston Pops first: a sensory-friendly concert designed for patrons with autism-spectrum disorders or other disabilities that create sensory sensitivities.

For this modified Once Upon a Time… program, Symphony Hall will be a welcoming space offering lower volume and lighting levels, relaxed house rules, minimal crowds to allow for movement, available noise-reduction headphones, designated quiet room and support spaces, modified food concessions, and staff and credentialed autism therapist volunteers trained to be responsive to families’ needs.
