Flint Institute Of Music Announces Flint School Of Performing Arts And Flint Repertory Theatre Education Closures And Postponements

Based on the recent mandate by Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, the Flint School of Performing Arts (FSPA) lessons, classes and ensemble rehearsals will be closed for three weeks. The Flint Repertory Theatre Education Department (Flint Rep Ed) is also canceling the Saturday, March 14 showcase performance and its Spring Break Theatre Camp. Flint Rep Seasonal Shorts rehearsals and productions are being postponed.

Both the FSPA and the Flint Rep Ed are still accepting registration and tuition assistance applications for the Spring term, which begins April 6 at FSPA and April 13 at Rep Ed. The Flint Repertory Theatre business office, as well as the Flint Institute of Music main building and Flint School of Performing Arts business office, remain open for business.

Just yesterday, the Flint Institute of Music announced it was suspending all events and performances that include 100 people or more for the next 30 days (April 11) at the FSPA, Flint Symphony Orchestra, The Whiting and the Capitol Theatre, including this weekend's Flint Symphony and Flint Youth Symphony Orchestra performances at The Whiting.

Flint Repertory Theatre productions will continue due to their smaller audience sizes, however, ticket sales will be capped at 99. One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest will open tonight, March 13 and close Sunday, March 15. The performance schedule has been shortened. Those who have purchased tickets for the second weekend of performances March 20-22 may exchange for an opening weekend performance by contacting the ticket center at 810-237-7333.
