Health and Safety Precautions

Updated September 2021

The Carlisle Regional Performing Arts Center is dedicated to our community of performers, patrons, and supporters. Although we find ourselves in difficult times, we are committed to bringing high-quality entertainment to Carlisle and the surrounding communities in as safe a manner as possible. 

When attending an event at the theatre, please be mindful that our wonderful volunteers and staff are doing their absolute best to keep both you and themselves safe while providing a quality entertainment experience. 

We understand that individual risk tolerances vary and for that reason, we are making our best efforts to balance individual preferences while still adhering to current CDC guidelines. 

As CDC guidelines change, we too shall re-evaluate our policies in accordance. 

Will I need to wear my mask inside the theatre if I’m vaccinated?

·    Yes, due to rapid changes caused by the Delta variant and breakthrough cases, all patrons will be required to wear a facial covering upon arrival. 

·    For the safety of our guests as well as our volunteer staff, all staff will be wearing masks.

Will I need to present my vaccination card to attend a performance?

·    No, currently we will not be requiring proof of vaccination to attend an event.

Will there be social distancing?

·    Yes, we are reducing audience capacity by 50% for certain live theatre & film events and will make every effort to provide for social distancing for our guests. Large concerts will not be socially distanced.

·    For all events, a facial covering is required indoors except when eating or drinking.

Will concessions be available?

·    Yes, currently we are planning to continue to offer concessions for our patrons.

What if something happens to impact my comfortability during a performance?

·    If there is a circumstance that causes you some sort of discomfort during an event, we ask that you seek out a staff member that will do their very best to assist you.

What if I am not feeling well on the date I have purchased tickets for?

·    We ask that if you have a fever or are experiencing any other COVID-related symptoms that you stay home. We will happily work with you to exchange tickets for another date or future event.

What if I decide that I am no longer comfortable with attending a performance that I have purchased tickets for?

·    We would be sorry to see you go! All live concert tickets produced by an outside third party are not refundable or exchangeable. Should you have a ticket to a film or live theatre production, we will be happy to exchange your ticket for a future date.
