Desert Ensemble Theatre COVID-19 VACCINE STATEMENT
The Board of Directors of the Desert Ensemble Theatre voted unanimously at a special meeting to require that all individuals show proof of COVID-19 vaccination to gain admittance to the Theatre when attending performances during the 2021-2022 Season.
This requirement applies to all patrons, artists, volunteers, staff, sponsors, media, and vendors. Required proof is a valid COVID-19 Vaccination Record Card.
