Safety
Protocols
As Premiere Stages move towards welcoming you back to our theatres, the following safety measures will be in place to keep you and our staff safe and healthy.
Masks
Masks are now optional, but strongly encouraged, for members of the campus community and visitors attending most campus events. Kean University reserves the right to amend this policy at any time.
Seating
All seating will be sanitized between performances.
Sanitization
Hand sanitizing stations will be available in the lobby.
Patron Distancing
Patrons are encouraged to maintain social distance while in line at the Box Office, in the bathrooms, and waiting to get to their seats.
Playbills
Both printed and digital playbills will be available for all patrons.
Flexible Ticketing
If you do not feel well, please stay at home and contact the box office to exchange your tickets for a different night. If an exchange is not possible, the Box Office will issue you a credit for a future performance.
Touchless ticketing is available.
