Westportt’s Levit Pavilion for the Performing Arts announced today it has canceled its 47th summer season because of the novel coronavirus.
“Please know that this decision is first and foremost based on our commitment to your safety, and the safety of our artists and audiences, staff and stakeholders, and the community at large,” it said in an email to subscribers.
“2020 would have marked our 47th Summer Season under the Stars. This will be the first time in our history that we will not produce a season and sharing this news is difficult—but we know it is the only responsible thing to do.”
The announcement said fundraising will continue so the Levitt can continue to “light up Westport once more, when it is safe to do so.”
