We will be updating these protocols as information becomes available. Please check back often.
You play an essential role in allowing us to reopen safely. With your help we can maximize health and safety compliance and minimize disruption of events. All patrons must observe the Weston Playhouse Theatre Company’s Health and Safety Guidelines, regardless of vaccination status. Click here to read more about why we still have protocols in place.
These guidelines are subject to change based on updates from the CDC and VT Department of Health. In addition to State and CDC guidelines, we are also observing safety protocols required by Actors’ Equity Association, the union that allows us to work with so many talented actors and stage managers.
While you are at our venues...
Masks – Masks are encouraged, but not required, at all outdoor events. Please plan to bring a mask with you in the event that you need to go indoors to use the restroom. Masks are still required indoors at our facilities. Bandanas, neck gaiters, and face shields used without a mask are not sufficient. For a detailed "DO" and "DO NOT" illustration of how to wear a mask, please click here.
Food & Drink – As in previous years, only water is allowed in our venues, including under the Tent. Food and drink may be consumed in the designated picnic area, marked with a sign. No alcohol is permitted on the premises.
Physical Distancing – Audiences, volunteers, and staff will be required to maintain a safe physical distance between themselves and individuals not in their party. Seating at our venues is reduced to accommodate for safely spaced seating, and all tickets are general admission.
Sanitization of Venues – All Weston Playhouse Theatre Company venues maintain a high standard of cleanliness through frequent disinfection of common spaces before and after all performances.
Touchless Check-in Procedures – To reduce the risk of virus transmission between patrons, ushers, and staff, digital playbills optimized for your mobile device will be made available. Instead of paper tickets, Box Office staff will be using a door list for check-in. There will be no printed tickets, playbills, or other dramaturgical materials.
If you're feeling sick and/or experiencing any symptoms of Covid-19, or may have recently been in contact with someone who tested positive for Covid-19, please stay home and call the Box Office (802-824-5288) to discuss your options.
