Cleveland’s Playhouse Square has announced that it will no longer present the series of touring ballet companies it began showcasing in 2002, citing a “lack of audience growth, declining philanthropic support and the high cost of presenting world-class ballet… The series was started in 2002 to fill a void following the demise of Cleveland San Jose Ballet. It featured American Ballet Theatre, the Kirov Ballet, National Ballet of Canada, Les Ballets de Monte-Carlo, Joffrey Ballet and other leading international companies.”
