"After what has been a very long year, we are really looking forward to welcoming our patrons back into the theater," said Chris Carter, executive director of Livermore Valley Performing Arts Center. "Until we are able to host live performances again, showing high quality films on our full-stage big screen can bring at least some of the joy of the arts back inside the theater."
"We hope to host outdoor concerts soon, but as our first priority remains keeping patrons safe, we continue to wait for county or state guidelines on how to do so," he added.
Tickets purchased for "Fiddler on the Roof" in 2020 will be honored in May, and patrons will be contacted to choose whether they want tickets reissued using the new COVID-safe seating map, or to exchange, donate or receive a refund instead. Any remaining tickets will then be made available at the standard Classic Film Musical price of $5 each.
Tickets for "National Theatre Live," "Travel Without Leaving Town," and "Live from London's West End" are $15 each, with $10 tickets for students up to age 21.
The Bankhead Theater is located at 2400 First St. in Livermore. For tickets, visit lvpac.org or call 373-6800.
