Question from Brian

  • Weekend rehearsals?

    • As long as everyone’s okay with it, they want to have rehearsals saturdays

        • There’s no one time that everyone is there :/

  • Protocol for reserving rooms over the weekend

    • Brian needs to let Gavin know a bit ahead of time


Event Planning & SAO

  • COVID updates

    • During performances

      • Indoors: must be masked all times, but NOT required on stage!

      • Must maintain 6 feet from audience

        • Unless they’re masked

    • Indoor maskless rehearsals

      • Must increase testing

      • Must open windows

    • OUTDOORS: no masking required (likely)

  • Can we get good clear masks through the stage troupe budget? - Natalie

    • Specifically for rehearsal purposes

    • Fall under costume budget?

  • Outdoor rehearsals could be very fun while the weather is still nice


Meeting w/ Crystal

  • Looking into if BU Beach is a useable location

    • It’s kinda a mess lowkey

      • Lack of communication with SAO

  • Looking like it’ll be BU Beach

    • Need to hire technicians, etc

  • Backup option is obviously the Student Theater

    • But the audience would be much smaller, no longer allowing non-bu audience

  • Set elements for outdoor theater

    • Pipe and drape?

    • Curtain-y background?

    • Nothing?

      • Can we set up a stage that can be there all weekend?
