UPDATE FROM WVLO ABOUT RESPONSE TO COVID-19:

UPCOMING AUDITIONS OF “LEGALLY BLONDE” CANCELLED

Thank you so much for your continued support of WVLO Musical Theatre Company. After serious consideration, WVLO has decided to eliminate any potential risk to our valued actors, staff, and volunteers by cancelling our upcoming Auditions of “Legally Blonde." We feel that this is the responsible action to take to slow the spread of this disease. WVLO will reschedule auditions in the near future.

Please stay healthy

UPCOMING PERFORMANCES OF “ONCE UPON A MATTRESS” CANCELLED

Thank you so much for your continued support of WVLO Musical Theatre. The California Department of Health and Safety released updated guidelines that state the following:

• Gatherings of 100 people or more should be postponed or canceled.
• Gatherings held in venues that do not allow social distancing of six feet per person should be postponed or canceled.
• Gatherings of individuals who are at higher risk for severe illness from COVID-19 should be limited to no more than 10 people.

All of these categories describe WVLO audiences in size, proximity and age. After serious consideration, WVLO has decided to eliminate any potential risk to our valued patrons, performers, orchestra, crew and volunteers and cancel performances of “Once Upon a Mattress” for next three weekends: March 14, 15, 21, 22, 27, 28 and 29.

Ever optimistic, we are holding out hope that we will be able to stage our show the weekend of April 3-4 and we are exploring the possibility of adding performances. This depends entirely on the status of the coronavirus epidemic.

Cancelling these performances is the right and safe thing to do - it is also heartbreaking. In a time of anxiety, this show was the ideal antidote -- full of whimsy, humor and joy. Several performances were already sold out! The cast and crew worked hard to make this show wonderful and wanted very much to share this delightful experience with audiences, but we must prioritize public health. We all have to do what we can to slow the spread of this disease.

We will be contacting patrons with options for refund or donation. We have frozen ticket sales on our website. Please be patient with our volunteers as we manage this ever-changing situation with limited staff.

Please consider donating your tickets back to WVLO as a tax-deductible donation. We'll also gladly exchange tickets for a future WVLO performance. Please call our box office at 408-268-3777 (24x7 voicemail).

Our heartfelt apologies go out to all of you. Thank you and stay healthy!
