For immediate release:

We find, with the Omicron variant of Covid-19 raging, that the prospects of us rehearsing and performing Big, Scary Animals successfully and safely is highly unlikely.  As a community theater, we put the health of our performers, designers, crew, and audience above any other considerations.
