COVID CONSIDERATIONS:
Contact Improv Boston does not require participants to wear masks or provide proof of vaccination. This is optional at the choice of each dancer.
Please be mindful of your activities particularly in the week before the workshop and do a covid test in the 24 hours before the workshop, if possible.
Do not attend if you tested positive for Covid in the last 24hrs (even without symptoms), or if you are feeling sick in any way (even with a negative Covid test), or if you have been in contact with somebody with obvious Covid symptoms in the last 48 hrs.
You must notify the registrar in order to receive a refund.
See full cancellation policy, below.
OUT-OF-TOWNERS:
If you live outside of the local area you are welcome to attend this workshop. However, unlike some past events, CIB cannot be responsible to organize overnight accommodations for you. Please contact your personal Boston area friends, if you need help staying overnight.
Covid is still with us and different people have different comfort levels - hosts and guests might have different goals. The event organizers decided that the complexity of making such arrangements was too great a responsibility.
LOCATION:
St. Mary Orthodox Church, 8 Inman St, Cambridge
Our usual Tuesday night space (Central Sq: right behind Life Alive Cafe)
Transportation: Accessible by T (Red line to Central Square) or if you drive, allow time to find parking. There may be some spots in the church lot behind the building; check there first. Street parking is not restricted on Sundays.
