AUDIENCE POLICIES

Last updated 7/13/2021.

This year’s Vashon Theatre Fest brings together outdoor theatre, multi-venue logistics, and a community beginning to re-engage with itself. We want to make sure you, our valued audience, know what to expect when attending any production of the festival.

Our policies regarding COVID-19 safety are a blend of CDC guidance, King County requirements, and Vashon Island community considerations. These policies may change as the festival approaches. Please revisit this page often for the most updated information.
