Health and Safety Protocols: 

Auditions: You will be required to wear a mask for the audition process.  You will be asked to remove your mask when you are performing, and will be asked to replace the mask when waiting.  The Creative Team will be masked for the audition process.

Rehearsal and Show Run: As we ease out of the pandemic, Theatre Sarnia continues to follow public health measures.  Theatre Sarnia is no longer requiring masking for Theatre Sarnia rehearsals. 

COVID-19 still has the potential to be devastating to a production. As such we are putting procedures in place to keep our volunteers and staff safe, and our productions running smoothly with minimal disruption.  This means that casts and crews may be asked to wear masks again during the rehearsal process depending on the case load or updated recommendations from our local public health unit. 

Rapid tests are available through the theatre, please contact Catherine Soulliere csoulliere@imperialtheatre.net  for access to them or if you have any questions.
