Covid Procedures & Policies
We are very pleased to open our doors again to our incredible community. In order to do so, there are some safety precautions that we will be adding. Some protocols are mandated by the Davis County Health department and some just make good sense. The health and safety of our actors, patrons, crew members, volunteers and staff are very important to us. Your help in following these protocols will also help CPT to remain open.
Primary changes include:
- Mask must be worn while in the Theatre (Mandated by the Davis County Health Department).
- This is waived for cast members while performing on stage. While off stage they will be required to wear masks.
- The facility is cleaned and sanitized on a daily basis. An antimicrobial treatment is being applied to common surfaces throughout the building, monthly until it is deemed unnecessary.
- Distanced seating in the auditorium will be practiced until further notice.
- Sanitization stations are placed through the building for your convenience.
- Home printed or digital tickets are highly encouraged for touchless transactions.
- There will be no concessions until further notice.
You can find some details for specific groups below.
