BATS Improv relies on the San Francisco Department of Public Health’s recommendations as our standard, so that our protocols remain consistent, responsive, and in step with citywide best practices. This allows us to adapt as conditions evolve while prioritizing the well-being of our staff, performers, teachers, and audiences.
For the comfort and safety of patrons at higher risk of adverse health effects from airborne illnesses, we encourage the use of procedural masks (either alone or with a cloth mask on top) or higher-grade N95 or KN95 masks.
Masks are encouraged but will be optional for all students attending School of Theatre programming.
Proof of vaccination will not be required for audience members or students.

Self-Reporting
We rely on our community members to self-report symptoms and COVID exposures.
f you feel ill, please do not come to class or shows.
If you test positive for COVID and it is possible that you attended a performance or participated in a class while potentially contagious, notify our office immediately via phone at: 415-474-6776 or email at: bats@improv.org 

Our COVID safety protocols will continue to be reviewed and revised based on the advice of medical experts, government guidance, and evolving circumstances. We appreciate your understanding.
