We are beyond excited to launch our Grand Reopening World Tour and see our fans and friends in cities far and wide, for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic forced us off the road in March of 2020. Obviously, these have been and remain challenging times for us all, and the difficulty of mounting a successful tour right now certainly reflects this.
We’re doing everything in our power to ensure that our cast and crew stays healthy and COVID-free during this Fall tour, and in practice, that means that the cast and crew will be sacrificing quite a lot — in addition to giving 110% on stage. We will be running a ‘bubble’ tour, which means the folks on the bus will have close contact with each other during tour, and no one else. That means there won’t be the usual level of random guest appearances, pulling audience members onstage, or serenading folks in the front row up close and personal.
Yes, it’s going to be weird. Our cast’s experience on the road is probably going to be closer to being an astronaut than a rockstar. Unfortunately, this is the only way we can possibly pull off a successful tour with zero infections.
So, when you see our cast onstage, be sure to give them a little extra love — it goes a long way!
And likewise — let’s look out for one another in the audience, as well. If you’re feeling ill, we ask that you stay home, to avoid getting others sick. Entry requirements are entirely up to each venue, so check with them ahead of time to find out what they require. We’ll be complying with the local governments of each city, and following whatever they decide to do.
Our goal this time around is to run a safe, smart tour and still put on the best possible show at every tour stop — as always, a show chock full of classic sounds, vintage style, and extraordinary talent.
We’ve missed you so much and can’t wait to see you again,
Scott
