COVID Confident
​
Pen and Paper Theatre Co. Covid Compliance

At a Glance. 

We have Completed a COVID-19 risk assessment.

We have increased c
leaning.

We a
sk all customers to wear face coverings in any indoor space or where required to do so by law. Young people will be able to remove them during the sessions, however, they can keep them on should they wish.

Making sure everyone is social distancing. We have adapted all sessions to minimise risks, this includes social distancing to the best of abilities.

Increased ventilation. We will be ensuring that a healthy ventilation is maintained throughout sessions.

Taking part in NHS Test and Trace. We are taking part in the NHS Test and Trace programme, and ask that all those aged 16 or over scan in, and the parents / guardians of those under 16 scan in. 

We will turn people with coronavirus symptoms away. If a staff member, young person, artists or any affiliated person (or someone in their household) has a persistent cough, a high temperature or has lost their sense of taste or smell, they should be isolating. Those with symptoms will be turned away, and asked to self isolate to protect everyone engaged with Pen and Paper Theatre Co.

Five more things we are ensuring:
  • We are taking proactive steps to encourage audiences to support the safety of the event. We will be discouraging activities which can create aerosol (such as shouting, chanting and singing along), seat individuals rather than allowing them to stand to help maintain social distancing, clearly communicate that individuals who should be isolating should not attend, and provide information on how the event will run.
  • We will limit the number of audience members so that capacity is at a level that allows social distancing to be maintained. From 14 September venues will need to ensure that groups of up to 6 in the audience are kept separate from one another to ensure they do not mix and do not exceed the new legal limits. To note, groups from the same support bubble (i.e. one household or two linked households) may exceed six and therefore sit together.
  • Limit the number of performers as far as possible and use teams, groups or partnering to reduce the number of people individuals who have contact with, for example, where social distancing may be impractical (such as intimate or fighting scenes in theatre, dancing, costume fitting, hair and make-up). We will be doing our very best to ensure the safety of everyone and this may include the creation of bubbles, teams, working groups or partnering. 
  • Limit the duration of opportunities for social interaction as far as possible, including rehearsals and performances.
  • Encourage working outdoors or remotely and following outdoor events guidance and or online safeguarding protocols.
