THEATER LATTÉ DA ANNOUNCES A TWO-WEEK SUSPENSION PERIOD FOR PERFORMANCES OF LA BOHÈME THROUGH APRIL 1st
(Minneapolis/St. Paul) Theater Latté Da today announced a two-week suspension of performances of LA BOHÈME. The musical theatre company hopes to resume performances April 1st—pending the status of the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) outbreak and future direction of state and local health department officials in the best interests of public health and safety.
In a statement from artistic director Peter Rothstein, he explains
“Theater Latté Da is deeply committed to our artists, technicians, staff and patrons during these unprecedented and challenging times. We recognize that suspending performances has a profound impact on our artistic community and the lives of those artists scheduled to perform; on our incredible crew, technicians, and staff; and many others who make live theater possible. Therefore, all individuals who were scheduled to perform and be a part of managing operations during the next two weeks, including all involved with the production of LA BOHÈME will continue to be compensated during this suspension of performances. We will monitor state and local health department officials’ announcements and take the necessary precautions to ensure the health and safety of our community.”
Patrons who have already purchased tickets to LA BOHÈME should expect additional information via email and on www.latteda.org with details for exchanging tickets to a future performance date, information on donating the cost of tickets to help support the company’s artists, or refunds upon request.
While the Ritz Theater will be closed to the public during this period, Theater Latté Da’s administrative operations will remain functional during the suspension. Questions or concerns about future performance dates, exchanges, donations, or refunds should be sent via email to boxoffice@latteda.org or by calling the Box Office at 612-339-3003 Monday thru Friday 10AM-6PM and Saturday and Sunday 11AM-1PM.
