Jospehine Davies 27 November
Sheffield Jazz announce their 5-gig live autumn Jazz season starting on 23 October at Crookes Social Club
The musicians are eager to play and we know that many of our audience are equally eager to see them and once again experience genuinely live jazz. We believe that our plans take all reasonable measures to reduce the risk of infection and we believe that our audience is now ready to support us and come to the gigs.
Although the Crucible remains closed, the large size of the Crookes Social Club hall does enable social distancing to be achieved. The main elements of the plan are:
• a strict audience size limit (100 maximum)
• entry by advance booking only, and to specified seats/tables (to simplify entry arrangements and support Track and Trace)
• 3 metre distance between stage and front tables and 1 metre distancing between tables
• service of drinks to tables (no bar service) and doors opening earlier at 19.15 to facilitate drinks service in time for a prompt start at 20.00
• separate entrance and exit, managed queuing, and wide corridors
• ready access to hand sanitisers and enhanced washing facilities
• modified heating and ventilation
• audience members are expected to wear face coverings on arrival, departure and when moving around the hall.
• In the event of a lockdown, we will transfer all tickets already sold to a future gig of the ticket-holder’s choice or, if they prefer, give a full refund.
Full details of the various counter-infection measures and risk assessment which we have developed will be put on the Sheffield Jazz website. We will adapt the plan as necessary according to changes in Government policy, local lockdowns and so on.
The season features excellent bands with musicians of an international stature. All gigs take place at
Crookes Social Club on Fridays at 20.00.
