#MaskUpCurtainUp began as a social media campaign in response to the theatrical industry's shut down due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Shows from all over the world are uniting with a mission to encourage fans to protect themselves and each other by following safety guidelines. The sooner we mask up, the sooner the curtain goes back up.
