COVID Protocols

Valley Players is committed to the health and safety of every member of our community, including our performers, production staff, patrons, volunteers, and everyone who is involved in any way with our productions.

These rules are specific to our production of August: Osage County at the Yountville Community Center.

QUICK OVERVIEW

Masks. While we respectfully recommend that masks be used indoors by all unvaccinated guests, doing so is entirely your choice. Please click here for Guidance on Mask Wearing (https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/Pages/COVID-19/guidance-for-face-coverings.aspx).

Seating. While the venue has the capacity for hundreds of people, we will be limiting seating to 75 so that respectful distance can be kept.
