If you've been missing the Playhouse and our delicious popcorn (which we've been told is the best in the city) we have great news! You can bring a taste of the Playhouse home with you this weekend!
We miss you! And we miss movies. Heck, we miss normal life, but we are all in this together.
The Playhouse announced its temporary closure on March 16, the day before the province ordered all cinemas to shut down. It was clear it was the only thing we could do: we simply did not want to expose our staff and community to the virus. After the closure, our first priority has been our staff and making sure they will be okay during this temporary shut down.
The health and safety of our community and customers is first and foremost in our minds. Be assured that even prior to the WHO categorizing COVID-19 as a pandemic, we were already increasing our cleaning protocol at the Playhouse.
We are keeping up-to-date with the current state of COVID-19 in Ontario via Ontario Telehealth and following government directives.
This is what we are doing to keep our staff and patrons safe:
• sanitizing high-contact areas inside the theatre audiorium daily. If it's warranted, we will step up this regime.
