2023-2024 COVID-19 POLICY UPDATE

As we kick off a brand new season at the Ritz Theater, we'd like to give you an update regarding our COVID-19 safety protocols. Effective immediately, Theater Latté Da has made the following updates:

  • We are no longer requiring proof of vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test result.

  • Masks are welcome but optional, EXCEPT for select Sunday matinee performances when they will be required. See production pages for mask required performance dates.

This policy is subject to change as we continue following artist union, Minnesota Department of Health, and Center for Disease Control guidance.

We thank you for your patience and cooperation as we continue to navigate these challenging times.


MASK REQUIREMENT FOR SUNDAY PERFORMANCES

For those who prefer to attend Theater Latté Da shows in a masks-only environment, we are offering Sunday matinees as masks-required performances.

Masks with a valve, gaiters, scarves, etc. will not be permitted. N95, KN95, and KF94 masks are recommended.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND BUILDING UPGRADES

 

UPGRADED HVAC SYSTEM WITH UVC GERMICIDAL LIGHTS

To help prevent the spread of any airborne diseases, we’ve installed UVC lights in the ductwork of the Ritz Theater that is effective at inactivating viruses, bacteria, and mold. Airflow turnover is now constant, increased to turn the air over 4 times an hour in the theater and rehearsal room.


UPGRADED AIR FILTRATION

We’ve improved all air filtration systems in all air filtration systems of the building as additional added measures to remove and trap germs, diseases, and molds.


TOUCHLESS FAUCETS AND SOAP DISPENSERS

Our restrooms in the lobby and rehearsal areas have been upgraded with touchless faucets and soap dispensers to help reduce the number of surfaces we share in the Ritz Theater.


HAND SANITIZER STATIONS

It’s easy to find hand sanitizer throughout the Ritz Theater, with hand sanitizer stations at all entrances, exits, and in key higher-traffic locations in our lobby, green room, and rehearsal hall.


Theater Latté Da and the Ritz Theater are following all Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) and local guidelines, as well as those put forth by the Center for Disease Control (CDC). We are observing all safety requirements put forth by the artist unions to ensure the safety of our artists, actors and musicians.
