COVID-19 Announcement
After reviewing the current information about the COVID-19
global pandemic, CDC, state, and local guidance about safety precautions, and
credible predictions of a resurgence, the Board of Directors of the Burlington
Players have decided to cancel our 2020-21 season. We would love nothing better than to be back
rehearsing and performing for the community that has been so loyal and
supportive, but we just can’t guarantee the health and safety of the audience,
cast, and crew; and that is the bottom line. We have seen other community theaters in our
area make similar heart-breaking decisions and we continue monitoring
conditions together to determine when we can reopen, with new protocols in
place to protect health and safety. We are also trying to look at this downtime
as an opportunity to make improvements to the theater that will benefit
everyone.
We will soon initiate refunds to patrons who had purchased
tickets for The Bridges of Madison County, and we will be contacting our
subscribers by mail to give them more information. If you have a question or urgent request for
the Burlington Players, please email us at info@burlingtonplayers.com Thank you and we look forward to the day when
we see you at the Park Playhouse.

A Note to Our Community
The Burlington Players stand by the black and brown communities in Massachusetts, throughout the country, and around the world. As artists, we have a platform and a voice that can speak out against injustice. As an arts organization, we as a board are meeting (virtually) to discuss what we can do as an organization and changes we need to make to our structure as a community theater. We pledge to learn, listen, and take actions that are within our means and will share that with our community in the coming weeks. We pledge to do our part and acknowledge our responsibility within the arts and in our hearts. Black Lives Matter. Our organization will not be silent to injustices.
