Sonoma Arts Live cancels 2020 theatre season

Sonoma Arts Live has made “the eminently sad but safe choice to cancel all fall shows through December of 2020,” the nonprofit theatre group announced today.

“Theater people are can-do, find-another-way-type of folks,” said founder and Artistic Director Jaime Love, “so believe me, we researched every possible scenario before deciding the only appropriate choice is closing until it is safer.”

Love said the company is researching protocols and safety measures in hopes of presenting an alternative to shows in Andrews Hall, with shows in the smaller space within the Sonoma Community Center. “Some may remember that at one time, it was a thriving performance venue called The Backstage Theater,” Love said.

“What better time than now to bring it back, with entertainment performed by couples who are already sheltering in place together and one-person shows.” They will be recorded live, and live-streamed, Love said.
