Guthrie Announces New Show Dates For 'A Raisin In The Sun'
MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- The Guthrie Theater has announced new dates for their upcoming production of "A Raisin in the Sun" after it was canceled last month due to COVID-19.
Originally scheduled to open in January, the theater postponed the shows due to cases of COVID-19 among vaccinated members of the company.
The theater will begin show previews on April 30 and open on May 6 on the McGuire Proscenium Stage. Tickets start at $15 for preview performances, and other performances range from $26 to $80.
Last December, the theater canceled the last remaining "A Christmas Carol" performances around the holiday, due to "multiple COVID-19 cases within vaccinated members of our cast and staff."
The theater halted performances for 18 months at the beginning of the pandemic, which officials say resulted in the loss of $28 million in revenue. The theater was also forced to lay off 80% of its staff.
