The staff and board of Festival Antigonish announced the decision to postpone the entire 33rd
season until next summer.
While organizers call it a difficult decision for both our company and the community, the believe the postponement is the right move in the interest of public health and safety and in deference to an abundance of caution.
The release states the company’s thoughts remain with all those who have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic as they continue to explore new and interesting ways in which they can stay connected in this difficult time.
In May, Staff will announced the launch of their FAST Friends campaign in May, which will provide an array of opportunities to support Festival Antigonish Summer Theatre including donations, pledges, in-kind contributions, and gift certificates for those who might be in a position to give.
Staff thanked residents for their help and support, adding they will soon contact anyone with a gift voucher or a season pass for 2020 and offer some options. Anyone with questions can leave a message at boxoffice@festivalantigonish.com or call 902-867-3333.
