With the support of the City of St. Louis Health Department, The Muny announced l that the previously shared reduced capacity restrictions have been lifted for its 103rd season.
\nThe outdoor theatre will open at full capacity, utilizing each of its nearly 11,000 seats, including the 1,500 free seats offered nightly on a first come, first served basis.
\nThe 2021 season lineup includes:
\nSmokey Joe\u2019s Cafe | July 26 \u2013 Aug. 1
\nThe Sound of Music | Aug. 3 \u2013 9
\nSeven Brides for Seven Brothers | Aug. 12 \u2013 18
\nOn Your Feet! | Aug. 21 \u2013 27
\nChicago | Aug. 30 \u2013 Sept. 5 .
\nThe Muny will return to its stage in Forest Park beginning July 26 with a five-show lineup at reduced capacity to meet the recently-updated social distancing guidelines for the City of St. Louis. The originally-announced seven-show 103rd season will be reduced to five productions opening July 26 instead of July 5.
\n\u201cThe entire Muny family is thrilled to share our plans for the return of live theatre to Forest Park,\u201d said Muny President and CEO Denny Reagan. \u201cTo say we\u2019ve missed our in-person audiences would be a vast understatement.
\n“For every actor, designer, painter, musician, choreographer — well, everyone who creates at The Muny, the unprecedented past 16 months have been arduous,” said Muny Artistic Director and Executive Producer Mike\u00a0 Isaacson. “Knowing we’re returning to do what we do and be who we are is electrifying.”
\n\u201cFrom city leadership to the hundreds who bring theatre to life on our stage each summer, a remarkable sense of collaboration among everyone involved has made it possible for us to safely welcome this community back to its\u00a0 theatre this summer,\u201d said Muny Managing Director Kwofe Coleman.<\/p>\n
“The City of St. Louis Department of Health has partnered with The Muny to bring patrons a safe and enjoyable experience this summer,” says acting Director of Health for the City of St. Louis Dr. Fredrick Echols. “By collaborating through the planning process, we feel The Muny will welcome theater-goers back safely, allowing many who depend on these summertime jobs to provide for their families.” With the support of the City of St. Louis Health Department, The Muny announced l that the previously shared reduced capacity restrictions have been lifted for its 103rd season.
