Let's all aim to build our lives around scent-free products! At our shows, we encourage everyone to come as scent-free as possible. Here are some resources and ideas:
BODY PRODUCTS:
- At minimum, please don’t wear perfume, colognes, essential oils
- Be conscious if you use things like hair or skin products that have scents/chemicals.
- -If you come to the dress rehearsal/show wearing something scented, please try to wash it off
CLOTHING:
- Wash clothes you are wearing to the show with 1 tbsp of baking soda
- Avoid fabric softeners as they can be super harmful for folks with chemical/scent allergies
IF YOU WILL BE SMOKING AT THE SHOW:
- Please smoke away from the entrance of the venue
- You can bring a change of clothing so that once you've finished smoking you can take off what you are wearing to change into something that will not have smoke on it
