What Does Haven Look Like This Fall?
Fall at Haven has always been a busy and exciting time for our students as we jump feet first into the new school year and annual season. This Fall, we look forward to a more traditional Haven experience for our students, as we open our doors once again for in-person instruction and performances.
At this time, our South Bay Mary Poppins rehearsals will be in-person, indoors and outdoors. Our South Bay Petite Players instruction will be in-person and indoors. Our wonderful Pico Union students will also be enjoying their Fall Show instruction in-person. Masking will be required of all cast members regardless of vaccination status when in an indoor space, in accordance with Los Angeles County's current guidelines regarding youth and indoor activities. While we are finally able to offer larger casts and more space this season, we will continue to utilize stable cohorts as much and as long as possible during our rehearsal process to limit potential exposures.
We fully anticipate our Petite Players, Mainstage, and Pico Union productions to perform live and in-person. For our performers, we're are continuing to offer the options below:
Option One – Perform in a mask
Option Two – Submit proof of vaccination to perform without a mask
Option Three – Submit a negative PCR COVID test taken within 72 hours of the performance to perform without a mask*
*Note: when indoors, cast members are still required to wear a mask backstage but would be permitted to remove their mask when onstage.
As always, we are prepared to make adjustments to our policies as our November show dates draw closer, should the need arise.
If there is anything we've learned over the last year and a half, it's that we have to take things one day at a time... but any day with our students here on campus, doing theatre, is a good one 🙂. We hope you join us as we launch what is sure to be a memorable 2021-2022 season at Haven Academy!
