Among the special accommodations provided are live audio description, tactile experiences, relaxed seating and more. This ensure that Omnium is a live experience that has been specifically created to be enjoyed by all.

“We are so excited to bring our show to the beautiful Heymann Performing Arts Center and share this special production with the Lafayette area audience,“ said Founder and Executive Director Lisa B. Lewis.

In addition to the public performance on March 14, PASA will also offer two daytime performances for students on March 13 and March 14. PASA’s Daytime Performances for Students are underwritten by a generous grant from Love Our Schools.

“Every time our performers step on stage, they know their job is not only to present a spectacular performance that you’ll enjoy while in your seat, but to create a moment that you’ll remember long after the performance has ended.”

Juggling is an art in itself and, during their time here, the Omnium Circus cast will offer a juggling workshop for individuals of all abilities. The workshop is set for Thursday, March 13, at 5 p.m. For more information about the location, visit pasaonline.org.

“We encourage everyone ordering tickets online to ensure that they are at an official ticketing website by checking the search bar before finalizing a purchase,” says Jacqueline Lyle, PASA’s executive director. “It is very easy to land on a third-party website, where tickets will be far more expensive than they actually are and may not be valid.”
