COVID-19HAPPENINGS

(In sickness and in health…) What’s On, What’s Off?

We know COVID-19 is complicating things for theatres and audiences.
Below is what we’ve heard at this time regarding March and April shows. This will be updated frequently (though things are changing by the minute).

 

Update: As of 3/16, all in-person performances have been cancelled by order closing all places of recreation. Below are show updates made prior to that time; it will not be updated further. Rescheduled show dates are updated on the Shows page.  

 

Please note that this information is not meant to take a stand on whether shows should go on or not. In general, we advocate avoiding large groups at this time and protecting one another, as well as supporting the livelihood of individual artists and arts organizations who will be harmed significantly by these closures and lower turnouts.

If you can support your favorite arts company and individual artists at this time via direct financial contribution, please do so.

 

Have a show scheduled for March or April? Please email NWTheatre.org@gmail.com with show and postponement/cancellation information.
