Outdoors – Open air performances help reduce the chance of spread.
Social distancing – Seating pods are 6+ feet apart. Audience members will only be seated with people in their party/household.  
Reduced contact – Ticket scanning will be contactless and staff will be equipped with masks and gloves.  
Face coverings – All patrons above 2 years old and staff will be required to wear a mask at all times.
