Planning Your Visit: COVID Information
We’re thrilled that you’ll be joining us as we return indoors! We at the Peterborough Players are committed to safety at all of our events. In the interest of the health and comfort of our patrons, artists, and staff, we will be adhering to the following COVID protocols:
Requirements for Entry and Attendance Information
- Along with many other venues in our region and beyond, the Players will be requiring proof of vaccination for all parties (patrons, artists, staff, and volunteers) attending or participating in an indoor event.
- Starting 1/29, "full vaccination" status will require booster shots, as well. (For those on the Vaxx Pass list prior to 12/29/21, kindly show us your booster proof before 1/29/22. Thank you for your patience!)
- Acceptable forms of proof of vaccination may include a physical vaccination card, a digital photo of your vaccination card, or state government vaccination pass apps. Kindly feel free to contact the Players if you have a question about any of these methods.
- While we apologize for the inconvenience, we will not be accepting negative test results in lieu of vaccination proof.
- Face masks must be worn by patrons, staff, and volunteers at all times while indoors at the Players. If you’re attending a live performance, actors will not be masked while on stage. However, any member of the staff or creative team interacting with patrons in the front of house will be masked. If you forgot your face mask, don’t worry – we’ll have masks available to you.
- We will be socially distancing within our theatre, and our house sizes will be limited. That may mean that your favorite seat is not available; we ask that you continue to be patient and flexible with us and appreciate your understanding
- At this time, Opera Bites won't be available for purchase, and we will not be allowing any consumption of food and drink in the theatre. Please plan accordingly beforehand, or make a fabulous dinner plan for after the show!
- As we did in our outdoor venues, hand sanitizer will be available throughout the theatre. We invite you to use it any time!
Process for sharing proof of vaccination
We know this can be a sensitive topic for some, and we strive to make this process as comfortable as possible. You may share your vaccination status with us:
Once you’ve submitted proof of vaccination, there will be no need to do so again! We’ll add you to our Vaxx Pass list – think of this as a fast pass ticket at your favorite amusement park. You will come up to the Vaxx Pass line and give your name. Our fabulous staff will verify that you are on our Vax Pass list, and you’re good to go.
In the event of potential COVID exposure at the Players, you will be contacted with that information as soon as it is known. We hope all of our protocols will eliminate the need for such notice, but we will let you know if such an incident occurs.
- At the door upon entry to a Players’ event;
- Ahead of time by stopping at our box office Monday-Friday, 10am-4pm ahead of your first event at the Players.
- For your comfort and security, we ask that patrons not submit electronic versions of vaccination cards ahead of time via email. We hope this helps ease minds in regard to vaccination cards being “on file”.
