GLORIA: A LIFE is Closing Immediately at Human Race Theatre Company

HRTC_new logoMarch 12, 2020

To our valued patrons,

Due to this afternoon’s declaration from Governor DeWine restricting mass gatherings to below 100, The Human Race Theatre Company will be closing its production of GLORIA: A LIFE effective immediately. This would have been our final weekend of a show that has generated wonderful feedback, and while we are disappointed, we understand the health and social ramifications. As always, we want to do what is best and right for our audiences.

Ticket holders for both shows have several options. You may exchange your ticket for a future production in this season or receive a credit for your ticket price to use later. Or, you may choose to donate your purchase as a contribution to The Human Race Theatre Company. All non-profits will be feeling the impact of these directives and your contribution would be greatly appreciated.

We will also be postponing our special presentation of Jen Joplin’s THE MILF ALSO RISES which was scheduled for next week to May 3rd and 4th. If you have tickets, please contact the box office to exchange into those dates.

The Dayton Live box office can be reached at 937.228.3630.

We wish you health and well-being and hope to see you at The Human Race Theatre again soon!

Best,
Kappy Kilburn Kevin Moore
Executive Director Artistic Director

Performances Suspended at Xavier University Theatre

XUT_logoXavier University, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, has moved to remote instruction for the remainder of spring semester.

Unfortunately, we will be canceling our upcoming productions of THE VAGINA MONOLOGUES and VOICES FOR CHANGE. Our box office staff will be contacting all patrons that have already purchased tickets to these performances to offer them a refund. This process will begin over the weekend. AMERICAN IDIOT is currently postponed.

As more information comes available about that production, we will again contact our audiences directly. Thank you for your support of the students in the Xavier Theatre program. We wish you all safety and health over the upcoming weeks as we work together to protect our communities!

On March 16, Xavier will move to remote instruction through April 14 due to concerns over the coronavirus (COVID-19). Xavier Theatre will be suspending spring performances through April 14. We are actively engaged in discussions to identify alternative dates for our productions. We will be proactive in contacting our audiences once plans are in place for how we will move forward.

In the meantime, we wish everyone to be safe and healthy in the upcoming weeks as we take the necessary steps to care for our community!

An Update From Your Know Theatre Family

KTC_Lets Play logoDear friends of the Know,

Thank you to all our friends and artists who are with us as we continue to assess developments regarding COVID-19.

We have received news about a ban on public gatherings over 100 in the State of Ohio.

Though our capacity is already under 100, we’re taking steps to be proactive in this moment to keep all who choose to come and play safe and healthy.

In addition to increased frequency of sanitization of surfaces throughout our space before, during, and after performances, we are also further reducing the capacity of current performances to 50 or under, to allow additional space between seats.

We continue to encourage all patrons, artists, and staff to wash hands for 20+ seconds frequently, avoid touching your face, avoid unnecessary physical contact, and most importantly, if you are feeling unwell or have been around someone feeling unwell, to make the choice to stay home.

The Know is happy to offer account credits for future performances if you need to stay home. Give us a call at 513-300-5669 to reschedule, get an account credit, or ask any questions you may have.

We will continue to assess the situation as news develops, and we thank you for being part of our community.

EARTH AND SKY Perfomances Cancelled at Mariemont Players

MPI_logo 2020Dear MPI Patrons,

It is with great sadness that we must cancel our March production of EARTH AND SKY. As you know, we are facing a health crisis due to the COVID-19 illness. As a result, Governor DeWine has issued a rule prohibiting gatherings of more than 100 people, which applies to Mariemont Players.

We know this is a disappointing decision for many of you, just as it is for us. Our cast and production crew have worked tirelessly on EARTH AND SKY, and they were very excited to bring you this wonderful production. But nothing is more important to us than the safety and health of our patrons, and, as difficult as it is, this is the right decision to make.

In addition, we are offering a full refund for anyone who has purchased tickets for EARTH AND SKY. Please contact the box office at 513.684.1236, or email us at waltoncreektheater@gmail.com, if you would like a refund.

We will continue to monitor the situation, and we fully intend to be back onstage as soon as our public health officials declare it is safe to do so. Keep an eye on mariemontplayers.com, as well as our Facebook page, for updates.

Thank you for your continued and valued support of Mariemont Players. We look forward to seeing you at the theater as soon as possible.

Regards,
Patrick Kramer
President, MPI Board of Directors
