While providing proof of vaccination is no longer required, all patrons, staff, and performers are encouraged to have up to date COVID-19 vaccination.

Squeaky clean

Our facilities have hand sanitizer, touchless soap dispensers, and an upgraded cleaning schedule.

Fresh Air HVAC System

Our theaters have dedicated HVAC systems, each with fresh air economizer filtration systems and filters with a MERV 10 rating.
