Seemed as if they are at about 50% or so capacity at the theater with about 3' between paired seats on the main floor. The 3pm show today, unfortunately had -estimate- 150-175 in the audience, but tonight's is sold out. They still put it all out for us. Great group.

And BONUS! Masks are required for the ushers etc, but REQUESTED for guests. yay!

The upgraded sound system at Savannah is excellent - great job. It certainly improves the music experience there.

Was nice to get back out to theatrical entertainment here...much more to come this year for us.

I attended the Wednesday evening performance and agree with everything the OP has said.

As far as making it safe for the audience concerning COVID, they did allow more space around seating.
I believe the mask signs are now posted for political reasons. The usher told me you will not need to wear a mask in the theater. Just about all of us are vaccinated and I was not concerned at all that masks were not being worn. If this is not acceptable to some people, they are not ready to go to the Savannah Center yet. This not a negative statement. This is true of people who are not ready to dine inside a restaurant yet. This pandemic has affected people in different ways and we shouldn't be critical of people who need more time to return to "normal". On the other hand, they shouldn't be critical of those who are ready.
