After a year of not being able to be together at The Yard, we’re so excited to be able to welcome everyone back into the building.
We’re doing a few things to keep all of us including The Yard team, our artists, and our audiences as safe as possible.
We are asking all of our audiences, staff and collaborators who are coming into our buildings for work, shows or events to bring evidence of one of the below for both Theatre and Music + Events.
Theatre
We’re asking all audiences, staff and collaborators to bring evidence of one of the below:
- One timestamped photo of a negative lateral flow test received on the day of the performance. We will also accept an official NHS email/text message.
- A negative PCR test result received within 24 hours of the performance.
We will not be accepting a double vaccination status.
Audiences will also be asked to wear masks in the auditorium and bar, except while eating or drinking.
We also know that not everyone is able to or feels ready enough to enter a space within social-distancing. So, there will be socially-distanced performances across performance runs alongside, non-socially distanced performances.
Socially Distanced Performances
- Reduced capacity
- Groups of only 1, 2 and 3s will be allowed to be seated together in the auditorium.
- There will be at least one meter or more distance between groups in the theatre.
- Only ticket holders will be able to access the bar.
- Reserved seating.
Non Socially Distanced Performances
- Full capacity
- No social distancing will happen within the auditorium and the bar.
- Only ticket holders will be able to access the bar.
- Unreserved seating.
If you are unable to attend due to Covid-19 symptoms, a positive test, or are required to self-isolate by NHS Track and Trace, we will be able to offer an exchange or refund.
For any other reason, requests for cancellations or exchanges will be in accordance with our Terms and Conditions.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to email marketing@theyardtheatre.co.uk.
music + events
We are asking all of our audiences, staff and collaborators to bring evidence of one of the below:
- One timestamped photo of negative lateral flow test received on the day of the night/event. We will also accept an official NHS email/text message.
- A negative PCR test result received within 24 hours of the event.
We will not be accepting a double vaccination status.
Wearing face coverings is not mandatory.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to email marketing@theyardtheatre.co.uk.
Here's what else we're doing
We’re going to keep using the NHS COVID app to check in (or you can leave us your contact details for Test and Trace) and we’ll have lots of hand sanitiser for you to use as you come in.
For shows in the theatre the way in which we ask you to wait and enter might be slightly different, please follow instructions from our brilliant Front of House and Venue Team. For the time being we also won’t be able to allow readmission or latecomers.
Thank you so much for your understanding!
