That business of the Box Office seating one production at a time? Yikes. SFS is selling seats up to capacity, for contrast. Plans for pre-opera talks are being developed. The Opera is working with the War Memorial and Global Gourmet to offer concessions to patrons, including limited food and beverage service.In lieu of printed program books, a digital program will be available. For a touchless experience, tickets will be delivered digitally (print-at-home and mobile).Exchanges will be accepted up to two hours before the performance. All ticket exchange fees are eliminated for the current season.Tickets must be purchased in advance either by phone or online at this time, tickets are not available for in-person purchase.The Box Office will seat one production at a time and use buffer seats (keeping one seat free between parties).All front-of-house and backstage employees will follow rigorous safety protocols including a vaccination requirement. Ventilation systems in the War Memorial Opera House meet Center for Disease Control (CDC) guidelines. Safety protocols include enhanced cleaning practices and availability of hand sanitizer stations throughout the building.All patrons-including those who have received a COVID-19 vaccine-will be required to wear a face mask while attending performances.
