Update as of March 2022
The safety of our patrons, performers, volunteers and employees continues to be our focus. Due to the updated state and local guidelines and high vaccination rates in Massachusetts, the MRPAC has updated our masking policy. At this time, masks are generally not required at our venue and will remain optional until further notice.
Please keep in mind that some presenting organizations and artists do require specific Covid-19 precautions to be in place for their productions. Events requiring specific Covid-19 protocols (including masking and proof of vaccination or negative test) will have information on our website and language included in our ticketing system at the point of sale. If a policy changes for an upcoming event that has already begun ticket sales, all ticket holders will receive an email explaining the change.
As the landscape of the pandemic continues to shift, our policies are also subject to change based on the most up-to-date information and CDC guidelines, as well as evolving local and state regulations. We ask for your continued understanding and cooperation as we work together to make the MRPAC a vibrant place of art-making with a focus on safety.
As a side note, we are pleased to announce that our facility's air filtration system has recently been upgraded. As part of our brand new HVAC system, HEPA filters increase air quality and circulation. In addition, we continue with our professional cleanings and have placed more hand sanitizer stations throughout the theater.
You can locate our updated Covid-19 policies on our ticketing website under the "View Details" link of each show.
