Movie theaters and pool halls can re-open in Rockland and Orange counties and the city starting March 5th. Many theaters outside the city had already started to reopen in October with limited capacity and COVID-19 safety measures, as long as they were in counties that did not have elevated infection rates, as Rockland did. Theaters will be limited to 25% capacity, a maximum of 50 people per screen. Masks will be required except when seated and eating or drinking.
