FAQs for Reopening

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS FOR REOPENING

Q: What are you doing to keep the building safe?

• In addition to our health and safety protocol, the Alliance Theatre is part of the Georgia Facilities Working Group that developed a Reopening Guide in conjunction with the Georgia Department of Economic Development. The Georgia Facilities Working Group includes a wide array of state and municipally owned institutions, universities, professional sports teams, and arts organizations, and was charged with providing recommendations to safely reopen public assembly facilities within the challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic.
• The reopening guide is based on standards and guidelines provided by federal, state, and local governments, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and public health organizations as of June 2020, so that Georgia facilities can use appropriate recommendations in determining how to safely and responsibly reopen to the public. It also stresses developing a robust communications plan regarding safety and well-being tailored to the employees, guests, and anyone expected to visit or do business at the facility.
