Return to Live Performance Thank you for helping us to reopen! Your feedback is extremely important. While the CDC, the Washington State Department of Health, and the Actors' Equity Association will dictate to us when and how it is safe to reopen, you will provide the feedback that will allow us to determine when and how it is best for our community and our audience. Please know: this questionnaire is completely anonymous. We are not collecting any personally identifiable information, and are looking only to find what will best serve you as we look toward returning to live performances. If you don't feel comfortable answering a question you can always leave it blank. But the more information you provide, the better our decision making process can be. Thank you again! We hope to see you again soon!
