Another Summer Theatre is postponing their season.
The Springfield Muni Opera cancelled their 2021 season back in January and now Theatre in the Park in New Salem is postponing their 2021 season back to 2022. In a statement, Theatre In The Park president Adam Reisch says the decision was made due to continuing mitigations, health and safety of actors and patrons, as well as the financial risk of producing live productions with limited capacity. Although there will be no summer shows, the theatre will hold some events this coming fall, winter, and spring.
Theatre in the Park directors will return and try to keep as many actors in their productions as possible, and will hold auditions in March of 2022 to fill out the shows.
