Rehearsal must go on for the Stratford Festival but first they need council approval.
The festival is going outdoors this summer with 2 venues but before they can even rehearse they need exemption from the noise control bylaw for outdoor stages.
The request is to be given exemption from 10am-10:30pm from May 1st-June 15th. They are also requesting exemption from June 15th-Sept 30th from 11am-8:45pm for performances on both outdoors stages.
Council will discuss this at an upcoming council meeting.
