Lakewood Playhouse COVID-19 PROTOCOLS HAVE CHANGEd

Lakewood Playhouse will return to mandatory masking for Patrons for all performances.
Patrons, as part of our artistic community, play a vital role in keeping our actors, and the greater community safe from exposure to COVID and other respiratory illnesses.  We shall evaluate the need for masking for future shows as required.

FACE COVERINGS Required for patrons

Face coverings are required for all patrons as well as staff. This will be adjusted in accordance with any changes to CDC and state guidelines. Please bring your own face coverings* and wear them at all times, except when actively eating and drinking.

All face coverings should:

• Fully cover an individual’s nose and mouth and allow the Patrons to remain hands-free
• Fit snugly but comfortably against the side of the face
• Be secured with ties or ear loops
• The use of face coverings is not a substitute for physical distancing.

*If a patron arrives without a proper face covering, one may be provided for them as supplies are available.

Unmasked Vaccinated Actors

Actors who are fully vaccinated may prove that they are and be unmasked for performances as long as Washington State guidelines allow for unmasked performers for entertainment venues.

Reduced Contact

Cashless Transactions are encouraged:

At this time, it is recommended all patrons use cashless payment options, including debit cards and credit cards whenever possible.

We will also move to paper AND digital programs to reduce paper waste and physical objects handed to patrons.

COVID-19 Warning and resources

An inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 exists in any public place where people are present. COVID-19 is an extremely contagious disease that can lead to severe illness and death. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, senior citizens and guests with underlying medical conditions are especially vulnerable and are encouraged to stay home until fully vaccinated and after the required wait period for it to take effect.

By visiting Lakewood Playhouse you voluntarily assume all risks related to exposure to COVID-19.

We have taken enhanced health and safety measures—for you, our patrons, volunteers, staff, and the artists we work with. For the health and well-being of all, please follow all posted instructions while visiting the Lakewood Playhouse.
