Washington Improv Theater is committed to protecting the health, safety, and well-being of everyone who participates in our community, including students, performers, teachers, staff, volunteers, and audience members.

MASKS: Masks are welcome, but not required. We respect and support each individual’s choice to wear a mask at WIT performances, classes, workshops, training sessions, and rehearsals.

IF YOU’RE NOT FEELING WELL: Feeling sick? Please stay home. That goes for everyone.

We ask that you check in with yourself before coming to a WIT activity and avoid attending if you are feeling unwell – regardless of whether you believe your symptoms are COVID-related (or if you’ve tested negative.) Staying home when sick is one of the simplest things we can do to look out for ourselves, each other, and the broader community.

FOR STUDENTS: We understand that missing class due to illness or suspected illness can be frustrating and that no one wants to fall behind. If you need to miss class because you’re not feeling well, please let your instructor know. WIT will make every reasonable effort to help students catch up and stay on track with their learning. (This will depend on teacher and student bandwidth, as well as availability, but we’ll do our best.)

UPDATES: This information was revised and updated in November 2026. WIT may update these policies as circumstances and/or public health guidance evolve.

QUESTIONS: Please reach out to us via email: wit@witdc.org

THANK YOU! We appreciate everyone’s cooperation in keeping WIT a healthy, safe, and welcoming place to learn, perform, laugh, and connect.
