The Raven Performing Arts Theater is a cultural icon.

Learn about this “hidden gem,” its unique history, and what we have to offer in this new video, produced by Dennis Whitaker and narrated by Raven Players Artistic Director Steven David Martin. And don’t forget, we need volunteers! If you work as a volunteer you get to see the show for free, and you get a Raven t-shirt!

Raven News
Win a pair of tickets to The Wizard of Oz

Everyone is talking about the Raven Players’ production of The Wizard of Oz, which opens Friday, March 22. Listen to KRSH Wine Country Radio (95.9 FM) on Tuesday, March 19th at 9:15 AM for a chance to win tickets to this remarkable show! Cast members Joanna Burrill and Eily Carniglia, who share the role of Dorothy, and Katie Watts-Whitaker (Glinda the Good Witch) will appear on Mindi Levine’s morning show for song, chat, and ticket giveaways.

 

Changes to our COVID policy


COVID vaccinations and N95 face masks are strongly recommended but no longer required to see performances at the Raven, unless requested by a performer or producer. 

The Raven continues work to improve air quality within the theater: We recently hired Indoor Science, a Chicago-based company, to conduct a thorough assessment of the air quality in the building. As a result of this assessment, we’ve upgraded our HVAC system and installed MERV-13 and automated CO2 sensors in both HVAC units. The CO2 sensors ensure an automatic release of fresh air into the building whenever CO2 levels rise. In addition, we’ll soon be replacing the temporary Corsi-Rosenthal boxes that are in the lobby and backstage with permanent, standalone units. These measures have been shown to reduce indoor exposure to airborne particles containing the virus that causes COVID-19 and other viruses. They also reduce the levels of other particles in the air, such as dust or wildfire smoke.

Exchange your tickets if you:

  • Are awaiting COVID test results.
  • Are experiencing COVID symptoms
  • Have been exposed to someone in the past 10 days who has tested positive for COVID.
  • Do not feel comfortable attending a public performance.
  • CDC guidelines were updated in March 2024 to state that a person with COVID can “[return] to normal activities when, for at least 24 hours: symptoms are improving overall, and if a fever was present, it has been gone [also for 24 hours] without the use of a fever-reducing medication.” The CDC further recommends that “Once people resume normal activities, they are encouraged to take additional prevention strategies for the next 5 days to curb disease spread, such as taking more steps for cleaner air, enhancing hygiene practices, wearing a well-fitting mask, keeping a distance from others, and/or getting tested for respiratory viruses.”

     

    Because of the nature of viewing live performances in a crowded auditorium, we ask that those who have recently had COVID not attend performances until they have had two negative COVID tests, or one negative COVID test + wear a well-fitted N95 mask (or better) to any performance and in the lobby areas.
