Nutcracker risk as Oberlin troupe weighs future
Ohio Dance Theatre in Oberlin faces a crossroads amid sluggish ticket sales and rising costs. With 15 years of Lorain County Nutcracker performances, artistic director Denise Gula warns the holiday ballet could be scrapped this year if finances do not improve. The 40,000 to 50,000 production budget relies on foundations and discounts, while audience affordability and uncertain local business support strain plans to continue.
