2025 Season Content Disclosures

What is a content disclosure?

Content disclosures (sometimes also referred to as content warnings, content advisories, or content notes) are verbal or written notices that precede potentially sensitive content. They indicate in advance any topics which people may find triggering or distressing, and they give people the necessary information to decide whether they feel able to proceed in engaging with that content.
