Please explain <br />measures taken by <br />your organization to <br />mitigate the spread <br />of COVID-19. <br />W e immediately shut down The Suffragist Project after initial <br />rehearsals on March 9th, 2020. W e shut down production of the NC <br />10by10 in June (rehearsals had not yet started, we were hoping <br />things would be better by the summer). OdysseyStage then piv oted <br />to an online excerpts from The Suffragist Project performed liv e on <br />December 13th, 2020, for the OC Department of Aging v ia Zoom, all <br />actors worked from home. OdysseyStage then did podcast v ersion of <br />The Suffragist Project (audio only), where the actors rehearsed v ia <br />zoom and recorded their parts in their own homes. The show was <br />then sound-engineered and edited together. W e also did a v irtual <br />performance of the NC 10by10 v ia zoom with the actors recording <br />their parts separately and editing the shows together. All actors <br />worked from their own homes. A third production of our liv e radio <br />play series was stopped mid-rehearsals in March, 2020 and redone <br />as an online audio only performance as well. Actors rehearsed v ia <br />zoom and recorded the play ov er zoom. Currently we are in pre- <br />production for the NC 10by10. All actors hav e been required to show <br />proof of v accination, initial rehearsals hav e been done on zoom, in <br />person rehearsals require ev eryone wear masks indoors, <br />temperature checks are done prior to rehearsal. W e hav e an <br />extensiv e Cov id policy and protocols we created (will prov ide if <br />needed), which were created with input from the Orange County <br />Health Department. It includes a check list of symptoms and what to <br />do if they come into contact with anyone who has cov id as well as <br />other information. Actors are staged to be socially distanced from <br />each other and the audience will be a minimum of 20 feet from the <br />stage. If numbers continue to rise we will do a liv e stream only <br />production with actors socially distanced and/or wearing masks, or <br />we may need to piv ot to a fully v irtual performance again depending <br />on the situation. If we are allowed to do a liv e performance, we will <br />require the audience be masked and socially distanced. The house <br />capacity will be reduced to either 50% or 25% depending on the <br />situation. W e hav e asked The ArtsCenter if they can request proof of <br />v accination for audiences. There will be temperature checks for <br />audiences. W e may need to do the same thing for any shows in the <br />near future. OdysseyStage’s first consideration is always the health <br />and safety of all our artists, crew and audiences. <br />All of our board meetings including our strategic planning meetings <br />and our company meetings are conducted ov er Zoom to reduce the <br />possibility of in-person exposure. W e will continue to meet v ia Zoom <br />for the foreseeable future. <br />COVID-19 IMPACT <br />DATA <br />This data is for the OCAC's informational purposes only and may or <br />may not be applicable to your organization depending on your <br />structure. <br />Number of Staff <br />Eliminated since <br />March 15, 2020 <br />N/A <br />DocuSign Envelope ID: 89A43E1A-61F4-4254-A2D4-4FCB2AB5935F
