Health Attestation: At the vaccination check, and every week at sign-in, we will ask you the following questions. If you answer "Yes" to any of these, please do not attend rehearsal in person. Instead, you can tune into the Livestream. See the Livestream link and instructions below.

You may take sips from a water bottle, but otherwise, please keep your mask on throughout the evening.

Remember to observe distancing when using the bathrooms. We will not be having a break so use the restrooms as needed. Bathrooms are on the main floor, through the Vestry and on the right.

No eating is permitted anywhere in the building, per First Parish rules. This is in keeping with best practices for safety.
ONE LAST THING:
The Mystic is asking your help in creating a comfortable environment for all. Please be mindful that some people are cautious than others, and our “old normal” greetings, hugs, and close talking might not be comfortable. Let’s create an environment where we can all communicate and respect each other’s boundaries.
And then we’ll SING!!
We can’t wait to see you there.
