In the ever changing face of the COVID pandemic, Studio Players has made the following changes to meet or exceed CDC Guidelines as well as local, state, and federal laws.
POLICIES
Attendees of Shows
We will be asking our audiences to be masked (covering nose and mouth) as we are an indoor space. Additionally, when the show concludes, we ask that audience members wait for cast members outside the building as we have a very small lobby
CDC Mask Guidelines are as follows:
Acceptable:
- Disposable surgical masks
- Cloth masks
- KN95/N95 masks
Not Acceptable Masks are as follows:
- Neck gaiters or bandanas
- Masks with an exhalation valve or vent
- Plastic face shield alone
Volunteers and Performers of Shows
- All Studios Players volunteers, performers, backstage help etc. must be fully vaccinated with an FDA or WHO authorized COVID vaccine, no exceptions.
- This means:
- 2 weeks after second dose in a 2-dose series, such as the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines
- 2 weeks after a single-dose vaccine (J&J).
- This means:
- Accepted proof of vaccine includes the following:
- Original CDC Vaccination Card and photo ID.
- Photo of CDC Vaccination Card and photo ID.
- Docket App (New Jersey Residents only): Docket is a free app from the NJ Department of Health that makes it easier for you and your family to securely access your COVID-19 vaccination record. The Docket App is available on Apple’s App Store and Google Play. https://covid19.nj.gov/pages/vaxrecords
- Excelsior Pass (New York residents only)is a free app from the NYS Dept of Health that makes it easy for you to access your vaccination record. It is available on Apple’s App Store and Google Play. https://covid19vaccine.health.ny.gov/excelsior-pass
Precautions Studio Players Is Taking
- Tickets are touchless. They are purchased ahead of time online or may be purchased at the door.
- Seating unlike our previous policy is general seating so audience members may space themselves out as needed.
- We will not be selling refreshments.
- Hand sanitizer, wipes, and masks are available to all at no charge.
- We have upgraded our filtration system.
- We ask that patrons do not linger in the lobby before the show, during intermission unless online for bathroom, after the show. Immediately exit the building after the show. Performers can meet you outside.
- Our performers while on stage will not be masked. They are over 10 feet away at minimum from audience members while they are on the stage.
