PATRON ADVISORY
Updated May 2, 2022
Based on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention updated masking guidelines, as well as sustained lower community levels of COVID-19, the following masking policy are currently in effect:
- Masks are optional for patrons, visitors, students and staff during all indoor performances taking place at Shenandoah Summer Music Theatre.
- Patrons are still strongly encouraged to wear masks for indoor performances, as distancing may not be possible.
- Should community levels in our area elevate to a high level in the future, masking requirements may be reinstated as a matter of public health.
- Masks will continue to be available onsite at the Box Office for patrons.
- The Shenandoah Conservatory Box Office is currently open for in-person sales Monday through Friday from 12PM to 5PM, and two hours prior to all ticketed performances. Summer hours are Tuesday-Saturday, 12PM to 5PM from May 31-August 12. Masks are optional when visiting the Box Office during regular business hours. Tickets and information are also available via phone and online at conservatoryperforms.org (convenience fees apply). Customer support is available during regular business hours via phone at (540) 665-4569 and email at boxoffice@su.edu.
We’re all in this together! While masking is currently optional, patrons are encouraged to be aware of those in close proximity and to consider masking up while inside high capacity venues. As always, if you do not feel well, please stay home and take advantage of our COVID-19 return and exchange policy. Thank you for doing what you can to help limit the spread of COVID-19 in our community.
