Mask-wearing will be optional starting next month, a further loosening of restrictions.
Broadway theaters will no longer demand audiences wear masks starting in July.In another sign that the world of entertainment is returning to pre-pandemic normal, Broadway theaters will no longer demand audiences wear masks starting in July.
The Broadway League announced Tuesday that mask-wearing will be optional starting next month, a further loosening of restrictions. In May, most Broadway theaters lifted the requirement that audience members provide proof of vaccination to enter venues. The latest policy will “be evaluated on a monthly basis as we continue to monitor the science,” according to a statement by the League, which represents Broadway producers. It also said that “audience members are still encouraged to wear masks in theaters.”Actors’ Equity Association, which represents 51,000 stage actors and stage managers, did have a reaction to the change.
