CANCELED: Kids in the Rotunda

press release: Public Health Madison & Dane County issued a countywide directive “to stop mass gatherings of 250 or more people to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, effective at 5:00 pm on Friday, March 13. This order will continue until further notice, or until it is rescinded, superseded, or amended in writing by the Public Health Office.”

Complying with that directive, Overture Center is closing its doors and canceling all performances and events effective immediately. 

For all performances through April 13, guests who paid for their tickets with cash or check will receive a refund check via mail. Guests who paid with a gift certificate will receive a new gift certificate, via mail. If you have questions, or want to apply the refund to a different debit or credit card than the one used for the original purchase,  please email tickets@overture.org.

Refunds are only available for tickets purchased directly through Overture Center. We are not responsible for the refund practices of secondary ticket brokers (e.g., StubHub, Vivid Seats, etc.) If the tickets were transferred or forwarded to you, the refund will be applied to the credit or debit card used for the original purchase.

If you have a ticket for one of Overture’s resident organizations for an upcoming affected event, you will be contacted directly by the organization regarding your options. Our resident organizations are Bach Dancing and Dynamite Society, Children’s Theater of Madison, Forward Theater Company, Kanopy Dance Company, Li Chiao-Ping Dance, Madison Ballet, Madison Opera, Madison Symphony Orchestra, James Watrous Gallery and Wisconsin Chamber Orchestra.

We will continue to monitor the situation as it evolves to ensure the health and well-being of our guests, artists and staff before anything else. We will work to reschedule events and keep ticket holders posted on specific shows. We appreciate your patience as we navigate this process.

Our building doors will be locked, and most of our employees will be working from home.

We look forward to welcoming you back soon to this treasured community gathering space where you can safely enjoy extraordinary experiences for all.

Thank you for your patience and continued support.
